How to configure Virtual NICs using the Emulex Virtual Fabric Adapter and BNT Virtual Fabric Switch Module
This tutorial is intended as a ‘how-to’ guide for configuring BladeCenter Virtual NIC (vNIC) operation using the Emulex Virtual Fabric Adapter (VFA) and the Blade Network Technologies (BNT) Virtual Fabric Switch Module (VFS).
For the initial release of vNIC functionality for BladeCenter, configuration is ac-complished using the standard management interfaces of the VFS. This guide describes implementation examples for both the Command Line Interface (CLI) and the Browser-Based Interface (BBI).
