The city wants NSX-T distributed firewall in production. A contractor proposes writing DFW rules before Managers, licensing, or transport nodes exist. What install order should the administrator follow?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
You do not paint lane lines before the road exists. Stand Managers, license, compute manager, transport zones, transport nodes, and Edges first—DFW rules have nowhere to realize until that fabric is up.
Full Explanation
The NSX-T Data Center preparation workflow is sequential: Manager cluster, license, compute manager, transport zones and uplink profiles, transport nodes, Edges and gateways, then security policy. Distributed firewall cannot realize before those objects exist. Authoring rules first does not queue them on a missing control plane. Carbon Black and Workspace ONE Access do not substitute for that NSX install order.
