Deploy the VM-Series Using the Operations-Centric Workflow

Review the overview of the operations-centric workflow.
Where Can I Use This?What Do I Need?
  • VMware NSX
  • VM-Series Firewall License (BYOL)
  • Panorama
  • VM-Series plugin
  • Panorama plugin for NSX
In an operations-centric workflow, some portions of the deployment procedure are performed on Panorama and the remainder are performed on NSX-T manager. On Panorama, you must first enable communication between Panorama and NSX-T Manager, configure the service definition, and launch the VM-Series firewall. Then, you must log in to NSX-T Manager to continue the configuration by creating service chains and steering rules. To complete your VM-Series deployment, you must return to Panorama to create a security policy.
This option is well suited if your security administrator has access to both your NSX-T environment and Panorama. Additionally, choose this option if you have a complex NSX-T deployment and requires frequent changes to NSX-T steering rules.
