Architecting a VMware NSX Solution : Availability : 6.3 NSX Edge Services Gateway : 6.3.1 Stateful Active/Standby HA Deployment for NSX Edge Services Gateway
   
6.3.1 Stateful Active/Standby HA Deployment for NSX Edge Services Gateway
This design follows the redundancy model where a pair of NSX Edge services gateways is deployed for each tenant. One NSX Edge gateway functions in active mode (that is, actively forwards traffic and provides the other logical network services), whereas the other unit is in standby state, waiting to take over should the active NSX Edge gateway fail.
