Environment
Bundle Transfer Utility 5.x or earlier
Cause
It is no longer possible, because Broadcom introduced changes to the VMware Depot URL and authentication method.
Resolution
Use Bundle Transfer Utility 9.0 or later to perform the download.
You can download the VCF Download Tool from the Broadcom Support Portal by navigating to:
My Downloads > VMware Cloud Foundation > VMware Cloud Foundation 9 > Drivers & Tools.
After extracting the archive, you will find the Bundle Transfer Utility 9.0(lcm-bundle-transfer-util) located at:bin/ within the extracted folder.
