Add and Delete Management Subinterfaces

Use the XCO CLI to add and delete management sub interfaces.

Procedure

Run the following command to add a management sub interface:

efa mgmt subinterface create [ --name sub | --vlan-id vlan-id | --ip-addr ip-addr --ipv6-address ipv6-addr ]

Run the following command to show IPv6 routes:

#efa mgmt subinterface show
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------+
| Name | Parent Interface| Vlan |   IP Subnet   | IPv6 Subnet |
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------|
| sub1 | ens160          | 100  | 10.10.10.1/24 |             |
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------+
| sub2 | ens160          | 200  | 11.11.11.1/24 | 2000::1/64  |
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------+
| sub3 | ens160          | 300  | 13.13.13.1/24 |             |
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------+
| sub4 | ens160          | 400  | 14.14.14.1/24 | 3000::1/64  |
+------+-----------------+------+---------------+-------------+

If a management network with the same name exists, the operation fails.
The changes made by this operation span three different components:
- Sub interface creation under the physical NIC
- Keepalived configuration changes (for high-availability deployments)
- Ingress controller changes
If any operation to the component fails, it is marked as a failed operation and the configurations return to the previous state.

Run the following commands to delete a management sub interface:
```
efa mgmt subinterface delete --name <name>
```
If a management network with the name exists, it is deleted. Otherwise, the correct response is provided in the command output.

Example

$ efa mgmt subinterface?
