Cluster Format Type: This parameter specifies the type of cluster format that will be used for the NSX Application Platform deployment.
Upload Kubernetes Configuration File: NSX Application Platform requires a Kubernetes environment, and the configuration file for Kubernetes must be uploaded to facilitate the deployment.

VMware recommends setting the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) to 1700 or greater for NSX deployments. This is to ensure that the VXLAN encapsulation, which adds overhead to the original Ethernet frame, can be accommodated without fragmentation. This MTU requirement includes the entire data center network, including inter-data center connections, to ensure consistent communication across all network components involved in the NSX deployment.

The set service nsx-manager log-level debug command is used to set the NSX Manager's logging level to debug mode. Setting the log level to debug can provide more detailed logging information, which is useful for troubleshooting issues within the NSX Manager.

For a 3-node NSX Manager cluster, all nodes must be within the same subnet to ensure proper communication and functionality between them.
A compute manager must be configured before adding nodes to the cluster, as it provides the necessary integration between the NSX Manager and the underlying virtualization infrastructure (such as vSphere or vCenter).

Tier-1 SR Router Port: This port is used for ingress traffic on the Tier-1 Service Router (SR), which handles traffic as it enters the Tier-1 gateway.
