Creating VNICs with the Same VLAN ID for Clustered
Controllers (BUI)
This example is for an active-active configuration with half of the network ports on standby.
This task creates two VNICs with identical VLAN IDs on top of the same device datalink.
Each VNIC is configured with an interface, and each interface is assigned to a different head.
Traffic flows over the cable associated with the underlying active port on one head, as well as
the underlying standby port on the other head. Thus, the otherwise idle standby port can be used
with VNICs.
