To open the browser,
on the disc go to the vcsa-setup.html file. This will start an internet browser

    deployment, Embedded or External Platform Services controller.
  5. Create or Join a SSO domain
    (NOT AD DOMAIN) – Domain cannot be the same as AD Domain. Domain example
    could be vSphere.local
