Issue/Introduction

  • In read mode, the problematic segment shows "NotSet" for connectivity and multicast routing field.
  • In edit mode, if we click on edit, the same fields appear green/enabled.
  • The segment is still functional, and connected workload VMs will not face any issues.

  • Running the segment API call: GET https://<nsx-manager>/policy/api/v1/infra/segments/<segment>
  • The advanced_config section is missing in the problematic segment when compared to a working segment.

  "advanced_config": {
        "address_pool_paths": [],
        "hybrid": false,
        "multicast": true,
        "inter_router": false,
        "local_egress": false,
        "urpf_mode": "STRICT",
        "connectivity": "ON"
    }

Environment

VMware NSX-T Data Center

Cause

This is a known issue in NSX-T versions prior to 3.2.0.

Resolution

Fix in 3.2.0 onwards

Workaround: Edit the segment name from the NSX UI will update the multicast and connectivity fields to show the correct status.
