Configuring physical interfaces for Virtual Engines

Physical interfaces for Virtual Secure SD-WAN Engines represent interfaces allocated to the Virtual Secure SD-WAN Engine in the Master Secure SD-WAN Engine.

When you select the Virtual Resource for the Virtual Secure SD-WAN Engine, physical interfaces are automatically created based on the interface configuration in the Master Secure SD-WAN Engine properties. The number of physical interfaces depends on the number of interfaces allocated to the Virtual Secure SD-WAN Engine in the Master Secure SD-WAN Engine. You cannot create new physical interfaces for Virtual Engines. You can optionally change the automatically created physical interfaces. For detailed instructions, see the Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN Product Guide.

You can optionally change the automatically created physical interfaces in the Virtual IPS engine properties. For detailed instructions, see the Forcepoint FlexEdge Secure SD-WAN Product Guide.

If the configuration of the Master Secure SD-WAN Engine allows it, you can add VLANs to physical interfaces on the Virtual Engine. If you do not want to add VLANs, add IP addresses to the physical interfaces.
