This resource provides a method to create a logical switch in NSX. Virtual machines can then be connected to the appropriate logical switch for the desired topology and network connectivity.
resource "nsxt_logical_switch" "switch1" { admin_state = "UP" description = "LS1 provisioned by Terraform" display_name = "LS1" transport_zone_id = "${data.nsxt_transport_zone.transport_zone.id}" replication_mode = "MTEP" tag { scope = "color" tag = "blue" } switching_profile_id { key = "${data.nsxt_switching_profile.qos_profiles.resource_type}" value = "${data.nsxt_switching_profile.qos_profiles.id}" } }
The following arguments are supported:
transport_zone_id
- (Required) Transport Zone ID for the logical switch. admin_state
- (Optional) Admin state for the logical switch. Accepted values - 'UP' or 'DOWN'. The default value is 'UP'. replication_mode
- (Optional) Replication mode of the Logical Switch. Accepted values - 'MTEP' (Hierarchical Two-Tier replication) and 'SOURCE' (Head Replication), with 'MTEP' being the default value. Applies to overlay logical switches. switching_profile_id
- (Optional) List of IDs of switching profiles (of various types) to be associated with this switch. Default switching profiles will be used if not specified. display_name
- (Optional) Display name, defaults to ID if not set. description
- (Optional) Description of the resource. ip_pool_id
- (Optional) Ip Pool ID to be associated with the logical switch. mac_pool_id
- (Optional) Mac Pool ID to be associated with the logical switch. vlan
- (Optional) Vlan for vlan logical switch. If not specified, this switch is overlay logical switch. vni
- (Optional) Vni for the logical switch. address_binding
- (Optional) List of Address Bindings for the logical switch. This setting allows to provide bindings between IP address, mac Address and vlan. tag
- (Optional) A list of scope + tag pairs to associate with this logical switch. In addition to arguments listed above, the following attributes are exported:
id
- ID of the logical switch. revision
- Indicates current revision number of the object as seen by NSX-T API server. This attribute can be useful for debugging. An existing X can be imported into this resource, via the following command:
terraform import nsxt_logical_switch.switch1 UUID
The above command imports the logical switch named switch1
with the NSX id UUID
