Configuring interfaces for Layer 2 Engines
The interface configuration for Single Layer 2 Engines and Layer 2 Engine Clusters consists of several main steps.
- Add the required number of Physical Interfaces.
- Add the required number of VLAN Interfaces.
- Add IP addresses or a traffic inspection role to the interfaces.
- IP addresses are required for interfaces that are used for system communications.
- Interfaces that have a traffic inspection role work transparently in the network and do not have IP addresses.
- Select the interfaces that are used for system communications.
