What is the proper sequence to create the required network segments?
To create a new network segment in a software-defined data center that uses an existing corporate DHCP server, the correct sequence is to create a DHCP relay profile, create a new segment attached to the Tier-1 gateway, and then configure the segment DHCP settings to utilize the new DHCP relay profile. This approach ensures that the segment's DHCP requests are relayed to the external corporate DHCP server.
you dont have access to T0 ... and it's a Relay not a server profile
A. Configure segment DHCP ip-helper: An IP helper points to a specific DHCP server within the SDDC itself. This wouldn't be appropriate if you want to utilize an external corporate DHCP server. B. Create a DHCP server profile: While creating a DHCP server profile is useful for deploying a DHCP server within the SDDC, it's not necessary when using an external corporate DHCP server. C. Attach segment to Tier-0 gateway: Tier-0 gateways typically handle east-west traffic within the SDDC. For DHCP relay to an external server, attaching the segment to the Tier-1 gateway is more appropriate.
Question said: "corporate DHCP server" - so DHCP already EXISTS. B for sure incorrect. We need to create DHCP relay profile (which contains corp DHCP server IP) and attach to segment. We do this normally at Tier-1 GW (not T0) with NSX 4.x
Key thing here is VMC uses relay profile, so answer is D, you can't configure the T0 gw. https://blogs.vmware.com/cloud/2019/07/02/dhcp-dhcp-relay-vmware-cloud-aws/
correction : A. 1. Create a new segment attached to the Tier-0 gateway 2. Configure the segment DHCP ip-helper Explanation: When you want a segment in the VMware NSX environment to utilize an external DHCP server, you need to create the segment and then set the DHCP relay, which is the DHCP ip-helper. This tells the segment to relay DHCP requests to a specific external DHCP server. In most cases, this would be done on segments attached to the Tier-0 gateway when you're intending to use an external DHCP server.
D is correct a relay is required
