The following example creates the Ethernet-Segment for configuring and generating the Ethernet Segment Identifier (ESI) value for a multi-homed client. In this example, two different interfaces are configured. For each interface, the Ethernet Segment mode is enabled.

SLX(config)# interface Ethernet 0/1
SLX(conf-if-eth-0/1)#ethernet-segment
SLX(conf-if-eth-0/1-es)#
SLX(config)# interface Port-channel 1
SLX(config-Port-channel-1)# ethernet-segment
SLX(config-Port-channel-1-es)#
