NSX-T 2.4: Force Local Account Login

NSX-T supports Role Based Access Control by integrating with VMware Identity Manager which provides access to 3rd party Identity Sources such as LDAP, AD, SAML2, etc.

When NSX-T version 2.3 is integrated with VIDM you would get a choice during the login which type of account you are going to provide (remote or local).

NSX-T version 2.4 no longer provides the option and will always default to the SAML source (VIDM). To force the login with local account provide this specific URL:
