Isolated duplicate network segment in AVS

Question

Hi,

I have production network where /24 network subnet is running and on same network my AVS environment is also connected. Am I able to create a duplicate network segment (with same IP range) in AVS without connecting it to T1 ? I just want to access that duplicate segment within AVS via its vCenter.

Thanks

Hello Rakesh,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A platform!

Yes, you can technically create a duplicate network segment with the same IP range within your AVS environment without connecting it to a Tier-1 gateway. This setup is known as a disconnected or isolated segment. It allows you to access the segment within AVS via its vCenter without routing traffic outside the AVS environment. However, this approach is not recommended for anything beyond very short-lived, isolated testing.

Please feel free to contact me for any updates. And if this helps, don't forget to mark it as an answer.
