Closes #1299
This PR adds new field -
deployment_mode
that supports two valuesACTIVE_STANDBY
(the default that the edge gateway worked always) andDISTRIBUTED_ONLY
. A new feature of VCD 10.6NON-DISTRIBUTED Edge Gateway
Edge Gateways (backed by Tier-1 NSX GWs) can now also be deployed in the Distributed only mode without the SR (services router) component. In such case the Tier-1 GW does not provide services that run on SR such as firewalling, NAT, VPN, DNS forwarding or static routes. The distributed nature guarantees high N/S data throughput (no hairpinning of traffic to single edge node running the active SR component). Load balancing, rate limiting or DHCP service in network mode is still supported. The other use case beside performance is to limit the NSX licensing costs.
Edge Gateway in
NON_DISTRIBUTED
mode supports only a small subset of configurations. The error is not completelly clear therefore there is an additional effort to make the error more clear if it matches the error for known resources that fail.to
Tested on 10.4.0 and 10.6.0 (nsxt tag)
