Create interfaces

You can create logical interfaces for use in aggregated Ethernet or -tagged configurations.

Ethernet network interfaces on hosts are created automatically in based on detected hardware. You do not need to create them manually.

However, you can create new ethernet type logical interfaces on top of interfaces, which does require manual configuration as described in SR-IOV Port Sharing <sriov-port-sharing>.

For aggregated Ethernet, where multiple physical interfaces are used to form a logical interface, or tagging, where a single physical interface is used for multiple logical interfaces, you can create and assign the logical interfaces.

To create aggregated Ethernet interfaces, see Configure Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces Using Horizon <configuring-aggregated-ethernet-interfaces-using-horizon>.

To create interfaces, see Configure VLAN Interfaces Using Horizon <configuring-vlan-interfaces-using-horizon>.
