Hi all
I would like to connect several T1 routers to a single hub segment. These T1 routers would not be attached to an Edge cluster because they would not require any SR. The intended topology would look like as follows:
------------------------------- Segment Hub
| | |
| | |
T1a T1b T1c
| | |
| | |
Segment A Segment B Segment C
In the above example, there is only a single segment "below" each T1, but the intention would be to have several segments.
So far I haven't found how to achieve this.
Many thanks in advance
Hi,
It is not possible to connect more then 1 logical-router to the same segment.
The only thing you could do is connect it over the service interface. But for the service interface you need a SR
From the design guide:
Service Interface: Interface connecting VLAN segments to provide connectivity and
services to VLAN backed physical or virtual workloads. Service interface can also be
connected to overlay segments for Tier-1 standalone load balancer use-cases explained in
Load balancer Chapter 6 . This interface was referred to as centralized service port (CSP)
in previous releases. Note that a gateway must have a SR component to realize service
interface. NSX-T 3.0 supports static and dynamic routing over this interface.

What is the end goal and what are you trying to achieve in doing this?
The end in my case is to increase the number of T1 LR a VM can be connected to using distributed routing. The ESXi hypervisor limits to 10 NICs
Another interesting use case would be to have a multi-tier T1. How to achieve this othrewise?
