VM with Public IP - from vCenter 5.5 to vCD 9.7

Hi all,

I have the following scenario: migrating from vCenter 5.5 to vCloud Director 9.7 + NSX and I'm trying to map how to do things in order to have the same result from my customers perspective, as explained below.

Our current solution based on vCenter 5.5 has a shared VM per ESXi hosts cluster with iptables+ebtables to act as firewall and router to/from the internet. Our customer's VM (VM1) receives a public IP address via DHCP at deploy time and it should stay static and attached to that VM as long as it lives. So when user logs into the VM1 console she should see the public address 200.10.10.11 configured within VM's network interface.

Is it possible to have the same scenario with vCloud Diretor 9.7 + NSX 6.4 ?

In case of affirmative answer, how should I configure vdc-edge, vdc-net and vapp/vm without turning on edge advanced mode ?

Thank you!
