What to do next
Manually configure the remote peer network endpoint.
Enable Static Routing for an Organization Virtual Datacenter Network
An organization administrator can configure certain organization virtual datacenter networks to provide
static routing services. After you enable static routing on an organization virtual datacenter network, you
can add static routes to allow traffic between different vApp networks routed to the organization virtual
datacenter network.
Prerequisites
Verify that a routed organization virtual datacenter network is in place.
Procedure
1 Click Administration.
2 Select Cloud Resources > Networks.
3 Right-click the organization virtual datacenter network name and select Configure Services.
4 On the Static Routing tab, select Enable static routing and click OK.
What to do next
Create static routes.
Add Static Routes Between vApp Networks Routed to the Same Organization
Virtual Datacenter Network
An organization administrator can add static routes between two vApp networks that are routed to the
same organization virtual datacenter network. Static routes allow traffic between the networks.
You cannot add static routes between overlapping networks or fenced vApps. After you add a static route to
an organization virtual datacenter network, configure the network firewall rules to allow traffic on the static
route. For vApps with static routes, select the Always use assigned IP addresses until this vApp or
associated networks are deleted check box.
Static routes only function when the vApps included in the routes are running. If you change the parent
network of a vApp, delete a vApp, or delete a vApp network, and the vApp includes static routes, those
routes cannot function and you must remove them manually.
Prerequisites
Verify that the following conditions are met.
n
A routed organization virtual datacenter network is in place.
n
Static routing is enabled on the organization virtual datacenter network.
n
Two vApp networks are routed to the organization virtual datacenter network.
n
The vApp networks are in vApps that were started at least once.
Procedure
1 Click Administration.
2 Select Cloud Resources > Networks.
3 Right-click the organization virtual datacenter network name and select Configure Services.
