VLAN based DHCP on NSX-T

[SeongYong Lee]

Hello.

Recently, I'm trying to build a nested NSX-T lab environment.

I have built a NSX-T lab successfully and the lab design is look like same below the web page.

- https://www.virten.net/2020/11/nsx-t-3-1-enhancement-shared-esxi-and-edge-transport-vlan-with-a-single-uplink/ 

 

[My lab environment]

MGMT : VLAN 10

TEP(ESXi & Edge) : VLAN 31

Edge Uplink : Trunk(NSX-T Segment)

 

But I have a problem to use DHCP on VLAN based segment.

I have configured local DHCP server on my VLAN based segment by following the document.

The document says "For a VLAN segment requiring DHCP server, only local DHCP server is supported", but mine is doesn't work.

- https://docs.vmware.com/kr/VMware-NSX-T-Data-Center/3.1/administration/GUID-486C1281-C6CF-47EC-B2A2-0ECFCC4A68CE.html

 

And if I use DHCP on logical segment, it works.

I wonder is it support VLAN based DHCP on NSX-T and if it does, I want to find out what is wrong with my lab environment.
