Supervisor with "NSX + CTGW/Edge/T0"

This section describes the procedures for provisioning and managing Network Services within a VKS Namespace utilizing an "NSX + CTGW/Edge/T0" architecture inside a vSphere environment.

VDS Architecture

Network Services - Subnetsets

A SubnetSet provides dynamic, automated scaling functionality for subnets:

  • Scale Out: As soon as a subnet within the SubnetSet consumes its available IP capacity, a new subnet is automatically provisioned.
  • Scale In: Conversely, when a subnet becomes completely empty (no workload attached to it), it is automatically deleted.

For more information about Subnets settings review the VPC Subnet Overlay page.

SubnetSets automatically scale in/out the subnets.
To have a subnet in a SubnetSet, you need to deploy first at least 1 VM / K8s in the SubnetSet.
