VRF configuration

Every VRF-capable router supports one routing table for each VRF instance. Each VRF-capable router can function as a group of multiple virtual routers on the same physical router. VRF, in conjunction with virtual private network (VPN) solutions, guarantees privacy of information and isolation of traffic within its logical VRF domain.

This chapter provides procedures and examples for configuring VRF using the NETCONF interface.

Using the NETCONF interface, you can perform the following VRF configuration operations:

Use the <edit-config> remote procedure call (RPC) to activate and deactivate VRF globally, set global VRF parameters, activate and deactivate VRF on a port, and to set interface parameters on a specific port.
Use the <get-config> RPC to verify all or part of the VRF configuration.

VRF parameters are defined in the brocade-vrf YANG module. For a structural map of the YANG module, refer to the Extreme SLX-OS YANG Reference Manual. For definitions and explanations of all VRF parameters, refer to the brocade-vrf.yang file.
