NSX vDS

VCF 5.0, you can fully separate system traffic and NSX traffic for both the management WLD and VI WLD using a second vDS dedicated for NSX traffic. For the management WLD, additional optional inputs are required. Cloud Builder creates and configures the second vDS during VCF bring-up. For the VI WLD, SDDC Manager UI supports creating VxRail VI workload domains with only predefined NIC profiles. If you want to use an advanced NIC profile or second vDS as overlay traffic, you must use the Workflow Optimization script.

Note: VCF orders the vmnic to uplink mapping on the vDS lexicographically (lowest to highest), even if the order in the input spreadsheet for the Mgmt WLD or the input to the script in the VI WLD are not ordered lexicographically.
