PART 1: Low level DR and SR internal component routing with assigning it to an Edge Cluster for the Tier-1 Gateways
From Iwan
A colleague (Sergei Ischenko) who is shadowing my work came back with some pretty interesting questions and comments that will be described and answered below.
This article will answer the following questions:
1) Where are what DR and SR components created when you only create a T1 gateway without assigning it to an Edge Cluster?
1a) What happens when you create a segment and connect that to the T1 gateway?
1b) What happens when you connect a VM to that segment?
2) Where are what DR and SR components created when you only create a T1 gateway?
2a) What happens when you create a segment and connect that to the T1 gateway?
2b) What happens when you connect a VM to that segment?
Introduction
Tip
Also read: Part 2
This wiki article was written by Iwan Hoogendoorn
The outputs and tests were done by Iwan Hoogendoorn and Sergei Ischenko
In Part 2 we will create a T1 gateway with assigning it to an Edge Cluster... (where this Part 1 talks about create a T1 gateway without assigning it to an Edge Cluster)
We will be looking at Logical Routers, Forwarding tables, Interfaces and Routing tables (only in T0 SR component) and we will be looking at the behavior of the Internal Edges, the External Edges, and the Hosts. We will retrieve this information after each of the above steps so we have a clear picture of what is happening when.
Important
Just give you a bit at the top of the iceberg : - ) ... The (internal) routing (and the traffic flow) between the internal DR and SR instances is different for SOUTH to NORTH traffic and for NORTH to SOUTH traffic. So NSX-T routes the traffic asymmetrically internally and this is by design of the way how NSX-T works
If you want to find out why? You will have to read this full and pretty long article.
Takeaways
The below is just for your reference and the completeness of this post, but to prevent bring you with all the details the main takeaways that we had are summarised below:
Rules:
- 1) NSX-T Routing/forwarding order: DR-T1 <-> SR-T1 <-> DR-T0 <-> SR-T0
- With components existing in NSX-T always follow the order
- Here is an example when some components do not exist in NSX-T (because not created by intent) then the order is:
- DR-T1 <-> DR-T0 <-> SR-T0
- 2) Do local forwarding first on a given host
- Do forwarding locally first between the existing components on a given host and then send the packet via GENEVE to the next host.
- When doing local forwarding always follow rule 1.
- Example 1
- DR-T1, SR-T1, DR-T0, SR-T0 exist in NSX-T
- DR-T1, DR-T0 exist on local Compute Node host
- Packet from a VM attached to DR-T1 arrives at it and destined to outside of NSX-T domain
- Forwarding on the local host is done on DR-T1 locally and then packet goes to SR-T1 via GENEVE because SR-T1 does not exist on local Compute host
- Example 2
- DR-T1, DR-T0, SR-T0 exist in NSX-T
- DR-T1, DR-T0 exist on local Compute Node host
- Packet from a VM attached to DR-T1 arrives to the DR-T1 and destined to outside of NSX-T domain
- Forwarding on the local host is done on DR-T1 locally and then packet goes to DR-T0 and routed locally, and then packet goes to SR-T0 via GENEVE because SR-T0 does not exist on local Compute host
- Example 1
- 3) SR components exist only on Edge Node hosts
- SR-T1 is always Active/Standby
- SR-T0 can be chosen to be configured in Active/Active or Active/Standby
Adding a T1 Gateway without stateful network services
In the diagram below you will find our base setup. We have:
- One physical router
- Two external edge VM's (to configure T0 Gateways on)
- Two internal edge VM's (to configure T1 Gateways on)
- Two ESXi hosts with NSX-T installed on it to act as a Host Transport Node
- One host will host a web VM
- The other will host an app VM
This is an output of the Edge Transport Nodes used in this article the way how NSX-T sees them:
This is an output of the Host Transport Nodes used in this article the way how NSX-T sees them:

Initial Starting Point outputs
In order to start our investigation, we needed to have a so-called "zero-point" or "starting point" to have the ability to realistically track what is happening when and where. So the initial starting point outputs are given below.

Adding a new T1 Gateway 1
So now we are adding a T1 Gateway 1 and we will look on how the above outputs will change and how the environment will behave. What is important to mention. is that we WILL NOT ADD THIS T1 GATEWAY to any Edge Transport Node Cluster! At the end of this section, you will find a picture of the topology of what has been changed with an explanation.
Let's look at the outputs again after this new T1 Gateway 1 is created.

Conclusion
After creating a T1 Gateway 1 and NOT assigning it to a cluster but still connecting it to our T0 Gateway we can see from the outputs that nothing changed. So we still have the same picture with the same components.
Connecting a segment 〈web〉 to that T1 Gateway 1
So now let's connect the segment "web" that we already created to the T1 Gateway 1 and see what happens.
And let's collect the outputs again.

Conclusion
Now that we have attached a segment to the T1 Gateway 1 we see some changes across the environment. A summary of the changes can be found below:
- An already created segment is connected to Tier 1 Gateway 1
- One T1-DR-GW1 instance is initiated on each External Edge VM
- One T0-DR instance is initiated on each External Edge VM
- No T1-DR instance is initiated on each Internal Edge VM
- No SR instances or DR instances are created on the NSX prepared Host
When we visualize this, this looks like the picture below:
Connecting a VM to that 〈web〉 segment
We have seen that the external Edge VM's added new "DR" components to itself. We have also seen that NO changes were made on the internal Edge VM's and on the Hosts.
Let's add the segment to a VM that is sitting on Host 1.
And let's collect the outputs again.

Conclusion
We have connected a web VM (sitting in Host 1) on the web segment.
A summary of the changes can be found below:
- One T1-DR (Gateway 1) instance is initiated on the NSX NSX prepared Host
When we visualize this, this looks like the picture below:
Looking at the routing and traffic flow
Now we collected all the relevant information to determine the routing/traffic flow we can "follow the path". We will do this for traffic in both directions.
South to North routing and trafficflows
When we look at all the outputs from the step where we actually connected the VM to the web segment we can conclude that the routing for South to North traffic follows the following path:
- From the WEB-VM towards the local DR-T1-GW1 Logical router on the Host
- From the local DR-T1-GW1 Logical router on the Host towards the local DR-T0 on the Host
- From the local DR-T0 on the Host towards the one of the SR-T0-GW (on the picture below: T0-GW-SR) on the External Edges (load balancing of traffic)
- And finally from the SR-T0-GW on the External Edges towards the "physical world"
When we visualize this, this looks like the picture below:
North to South routing and trafficflows
When we look at the routing/traffic flows for the return traffic coming from the North, we see that the path taken back is totally different. We can conclude that the routing for North to South traffic follows the following path:
- From the "physical world" towards the SR-T0-GW (on the picture below: T0-GW-SR) on the External Edges
- From SR-T0-GW on the External Edges towards the DR-T0 on the same External Edge
- From the DR-T0 on the same External Edge towards the DR-T1-GW1 component also on that same External Edge
- And finally from that DR-T1-GW1 component that same External Edge towards the WEB-VM.
When we visualize this, this looks like the picture below:
Concusion for routing and trafficflows
So the main conclusions are:
- The DR and SR components are created across different location depending on the order of operations you use to create T1 gateways, segments and connect VM's to segments
- The network traffic/routing flow is asymmetric for North to South flows and for South to North flows.
Additional Traceflow outputs
Below you can see that the above conclusions are confirmed with the trace flows shown below.
SRC is WEB VM and DST is IP address 1 - physical world
This test is to verify the from between the WEB-VM towards the physical world.
SRC is WEB VM and DST is IP address 2 -physical world
This test was conducted to verify if the load balancing of routing between the External Edge VM's is working.
SRC is External Edge VM 1 and DST is WEB VM
This test is to verify the flow between the first Edge VM towards the WEB-VM.
SRC is External Edge VM 2 and DST is WEB VM
This test is to verify the flow between the second Edge VM towards the WEB-VM.
