Hi Team,
I have a small confusion here about VCD networking.
1) We have completed the vCloud director setup the without any NSX components(edge gateway--->NAT,VPN,etc..).I mean, We have used NSX manager appliance only to attach VCD with vCenter server.
2) We are using external network only from Organization VDCs to connect the customer VMs to outside world. Assume my external network CIDR range is 10.10.10.0/24.We are using other firewall/LB appliances at outside of VCD to provide some features(like NSX edge gateway-->VPN,DHCP,NAT etc..) to customer.
3) Suppose if want to connect any other VMs from the same subnet(CIDR range is 10.10.10.0/24) or wants to connect the external world(public internet),i will use the same external network to achieve this.
Doubts on this.
Suppose if i want to use this below option from customer VDC "Create an isolated network within this virtual data center" I need to create a new network pool either with VXLAN backed or VLAN based or vsphere port group-backed.and then needs to attach this network pool in the respective Organization VDCs.
To achieve this task "Create an isolated network within this virtual datacenter"(for example VLAN based or vsphere port group-backed),NSX components are mandatory(edge gateway) and without NSX components we cannot do this ? Am i right?
Please suggest.

Thanks,
