1. Configure the external LAG to be used with vNIC group 2.
2. Enable the vNIC feature on the switch.
3. Configure the virtual pipes for the vNICs attached to each internal port:

CN 4093(config)# portchannel 1 port EXT3,EXT4 enable
CN 4093(config)# vnic enable
CN 4093(config)# vnic port INTA1 index 1 (Select vNIC 1 on the port)
CN 4093(vnic-config)# enable
CN 4093(vnic-config)# bandwidth 60
CN 4093(vnic-config)# exit
CN 4093(config)# vnic port INTA1 index 2 (Select vNIC 2 on the port)
CN 4093(vnic-config)# enable
CN 4093(vnic-config)# bandwidth 40
CN 4093(vnic-config)# exit
CN 4093(config)# vnic port INTA2 index 1 (Select vNIC 1 on the port)
CN 4093(vnic-config)# enable
CN 4093(vnic-config)# exit
CN 4093(config)# vnic port INTA2 index 2 (Select vNIC 2 on the port)
CN 4093(vnic-config)# enable
CN 4093(vnic-config)# exit
As a configuration shortcut, vNICs do not have to be explicitly enabled in this step.
When a vNIC is added to the vNIC group (in the next step), the switch will prompt
you to confirm automatically enabling the vNIC if it is not yet enabled (shown for
INT3.2).
Note: vNICs are not supported simultaneously on the same switch ports as
VMready.
