In this Challenge Lab, you will deploy and configure NSX Manager virtual appliances. First, you will deploy an NSX Manager virtual appliance by using an .ova file, and then you will add a license key. Next, you will configure a VMware vCenter server as a compute manager, and then you will add an additional NSX Manager virtual appliance. Finally, you will configure a virtual IP address for a VMware NSX-T cluster, and then you will verify that you can connect to the NSX-T cluster by using the virtual IP address. Note: Once you begin the Challenge Lab, you will not be able to pause, save, or exit and then return to your Challenge Lab. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the Challenge Lab before you start.
