NSX-T – NCP Integration with Openshift 4.6 – The Easy Way

By | 24. March 2021

Introduction If you have been following the blog posts on this site, we implemented NSX-T with Openshift 4.4 with NCP’s support for Openshift operators (see https://www.vrealize.it/2020/09/29/nsx-t-ncp-integration-with-openshift-4-4-the-easy-way).

NSX-T – NCP Integration with Openshift 4.4 – The Easy Way

By | 29. September 2020

Introduction In my previous post, we implemented NSX-T with Openshift 4 based without NCP’s support for Openshift operators (see https://www.vrealize.it/2020/07/15/nsx-t-ncp-integration-with-openshift-4-3-the-hard-way/). In the meantime, NCP 3.0.2 was released, which is implemented using an Openshift operator. The operator is also published on the Redhat Openshift Operator Hub (https://catalog.redhat.com/software/operators/detail/5ef0f362701a9cb8c147cf4b). That makes the installation way more simple, as you… Read More »

As NSX-T NCP default behaviour is to NAT your K8S Namespaces this can – depending on you overall architecture – cause connection… Read More »
