Is “test” the name of a Logical Switch configured? By clicking change list of the available swiches, a logical switch could be chosen, every internal interface of DLR could be on seperate LS

"test" Logical Switch has been configured.

I found I can't add another interface in DLR or EDGE.

I don't know what is reason.

It's a known issue as per the following KBs, the resolution is to do an NSX upgrade and the workaround is to use REST API to configure the interfaces

Adding or modifying interfaces to edge fails with a blank error message (2151309)

Creating Interface or sub interfaces on NSX-V 6.3.2/6.3.3/6.3.4 edges fails (2151711)

This issue is resolved in NSX for vSphere 6.3.3, available at VMware Downloads.

Note: This is a known issue in NSX for vSphere 6.3.2 and vSphere VCSA 6.5 U1.


To avoid this issue, create all interfaces when DLR or ESG is being created using UI.


To work around this issue, if you do not want to upgrade, Use API call to change the interface settings.
