What is the purpose of virtual interface CloudGenix?
Environment
CloudGenix
Answer
- A virtual interface combines two physical ports into one logical interface.
- Virtual interfaces provide increased redundancy in areas of the network where uptime is critical and additional design flexibility is needed.
- A virtual interface will be shown as Down only if both the member interfaces are operationally down. If at least one member is operationally up, the virtual interface is shown as Up.
- A virtual interface can be created, updated, or deleted.
- A virtual interface can contain a maximum of two member interfaces.
- A virtual interface ensures redundant physical connectivity from a device to one or more switches, routers, or firewalls.
- For example, two controller ports can be connected to two L2 switches for physical redundancy of controller port connectivity.
