Sjors Robroek describes his nested NSX-T lab that also includes some virtualized network equipment (virtualized Arista switches). I wouldn’t take this information as gospel, but here’s a breakdown of some of the IPv6 support available in VMware NSX. Virtualization. Servers/Hardware. Cloud Computing/Cloud Management.
