Issue/Introduction

  • The maximum number of Segments for a Large NSX Manager is 10,000.
  • The maximum number of Segments per VDS is 10,000, this is the Static/Dynamic port groups per distributed switch as documented in the vSphere Configuration Limits.

Environment

Vmware NSX
Vmware vSphere ESX 8.x
VMware vCenter Server 8.x

 

Resolution

While NSX Segments are labelled as Ephemeral Port Groups in vCenter, this is only because they are managed by NSX, the vSphere maximums for Ephemeral Port Groups do not apply to NSX.
