Configuring NPV Traffic Management

Configuring NPV Traffic Maps

An NPV traffic map associates one or more NP uplink interfaces with a server interface. The switch associates
the server interface with one of these NP uplinks.
If a server interface is already mapped to an NP uplink, you should include this mapping in the traffic
