Interfaces

The Interface custom resource allows you to manage network interfaces on your network devices. All interfaces must reference a Host. For more information about how to configure a Host, please refer to the management section.

You may get a list of network interfaces by running the following command.

kubectl get if
NAME                  HOST           SELECTOR   VLAN-MODE
distswitch00-eth1-1   distswitch00   eth1/1     Access
distswitch00-eth1-3   distswitch00   eth1/3     Trunk

VLAN

Virtual local area networks (VLANs) are used to segment a network into multiple broadcast domains. They allow you to build multiple networks using a single physical network. For more information about VLANs, please refer to the VLAN Wikipedia article.

Access port

An access port is a link that is configured to only allow traffic for a single VLAN. This is useful to connect an end-user device to a specific VLAN.

Trunk port

A trunk port is a link that is configured to allow traffic for multiple VLANs. This is useful to connect two VLAN-aware switches together.
