| Description | A list of virtual ethernet interfaces which supports
pinning functionality in VSM.
Pinning is a mechanism of directing traffic to or
from a interface through a particular interface
in a switch.
By default, system use load balancing algorithm to pick
the best possible physical interface automatically.
However, user may use pinning functionality to
instrument the finite control on the traffic flow
between virtual ethernet interfaces and actual physical
interfaces in VSM.
For example, user may want to configure that packets
from a particular virtual ethernet interface always go
out through first interface in the port channel
irrespective of load balancing policy on the switch.
In order to achieve this, user can pin the virtual
ethernet interface to first interface of the switch. |
