Stretch Segments between VMware Cloud
Foundation Instances
Each NSX Manager instance to be federated has a tier-0 gateway, tier-1 gateway, and
two segments created during NSX Edge deployment and Application Virtual Network (AVN)
creation. One of these segments is for local instance use and the other is for
cross-instance use. Both segments are initially connected to the same tier-1 gateway. When
NSX Manager instances are federated, you create an addtional tier-1 gateway for
cross-instance use and migrate the cross-instance segment from the original tier-1 gateway
to the new tier-1 gateway. The new tier-1 gateway has locations for both instances enabled
on it. This allows you to manage the ingress and egress routing for cross-instance segments
when you move them between VMware Cloud Foundation instances independently of local instance
segments whose ingress and egress remain unaffected.
