Repeat step 5 through step 8 until you have created all of your
virtual adapters and given descriptions to your ports. The adapters
appear in the list of adapters presented when you create a probe
instance. This allows you to bind the probe instance to a virtual
adapter.

Figure 81 shows the example of the trunk with four ports assigned
to it and four more adapters each with its own port.

Figure 81 Virtual Adapters tab

For each virtual adapter you must create an active probe instance and
bind the virtual adapter to that probe instance. By default, new virtual
adapters are not bound to any probe instance, so no data is collected
on those ports until assigned to a probe instance.
