In addition to NFV features for the entire VDC, some features are also available at vApp level within the VDC.
A vApp is usually used as a collection of VMs that together form an application. It can include a vApp network (including IP segment), making an additional vApp virtual router necessary for inter-vApp traffic. This virtual router provides static routing, NAT and standard firewall functions to the rest of the VDC. The vApp can be rolled out from a vApp template, so that the application of the application is standardized.
A vApp virtual router is only created when requested by the vApp application configuration, and is not available with a new VDC delivery. This vApp virtual router is automated per vApp network and made available in the Compact size only.
