VSI interfaces or VSI aggregate interfaces are typically created by a VSI manager. You can create a VSI

interface or VSI aggregate interface, or modify its Pre-Associate and Associate properties through this
task.
To create a VSI interface or VSI aggregate interface:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter S-channel interface

view or S-channel aggregate
interface view.

interface { s-channel |
schannel-aggregation }

interface-number:channel-id

N/A

3.

Create a VSI interface or VSI

aggregate interface.

evb vsi vsi-local-id { association |
pre-association }

By default, no VSI interface or VSI
aggregate interface exists on an
S-channel.

Configuring VSI filters

The EVB bridge uses VSI filters to identify VSI traffic. Typically a VSI manager assigns filters. You can
manually create or remove a VSI filter.
A VSI filter contains a set of VID values, MAC addresses, and group ID values. EVB supports the

following filter info formats:

VLAN ID.

VLAN ID + MAC.

Group ID + VLAN ID.

Group ID + VLAN ID + MAC.

When you configure a VSI filter on a VSI interface, follow these guidelines:

For the VSI filter configuration to take effect, make sure the S-channel interface to which the VSI
interface belongs operates in trunk mode.

When you create a VSI filter, the following interfaces automatically permit the VLAN contained in
the VSI filter:

{

The S-channel interface to which the VSI interface belongs.

{

The Layer 2 Ethernet interface where the S-channel that is associated with the S-channel
interface is created.

When you delete a VSI filter that contains information about a VLAN on a VSI interface, the other
VSI filters on all VSI interfaces of an S-channel interface might not contain the VLAN. If they do not,
the S-channel interface automatically denies traffic from the VLAN that is configured on the VSI filter.

The same rule takes effect on Layer 2 interfaces associated with S-channels.

When you delete a VSI filter, the following interfaces automatically deny the VLAN in the filter if the
VSI filters on the other VSI interfaces created on the same S-channel interface do not contain the

VLAN:

{

The S-channel interface to which the VSI interface belongs.

{

The Layer 2 Ethernet interface where the S-channel that is associated with the S-channel
interface is created.
