Procedure
1 Click the Manage & Monitor tab and click Organization vDCs in the left pane.
2 Double-click the organization vDC name to open the organization vDC.
3 Click the Org vDC Networks tab, right-click the organization vDC 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. See “Add Static Routes Between vApp Networks Routed to the Same Organization vDC
Network,” on page 89 and “Add Static Routes Between vApp Networks Routed to Different Organization
vDC Networks,” on page 90.
Add Static Routes Between vApp Networks Routed to the Same Organization vDC
Network
You can add static routes between two vApp networks that are routed to the same organization vDC 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 vDC network, configure the network firewall rules to allow traffic on the static route.
Static routes function only when the vApps included in the routes are running. If you perform any of the
following operations on a vApp that includes static routes, the static routes no longer function and you must
remove them manually.
n
Change the parent network of a vApp
n
Delete a vApp
n
Delete a vApp network
Prerequisites
Verify that the networks have the following configurations:
n
vShield Manager 5.1 is installed.
n
A routed organization vDC network.
n
Static routing is enabled on the organization vDC network.
n
Two vApp networks are routed to the organization vDC network.
n
The vApp networks are in vApps that were started at least once.
Procedure
1 Click the Manage & Monitor tab and click Organization vDCs in the left pane.
2 Double-click the organization vDC name to open the organization vDC.
3 Click the Org vDC Networks tab, right-click the organization vDC network name and select Configure
Services.
4 On the Static Routing tab, click Add.
5 Type a name, network address, and next hop IP.
The network address is for the first vApp network to which to add a static route. The next hop IP is the
external IP address of that vApp network's router.
6 Select Within this network and click OK.
