How to Set the Virtual Switch Mode to Remote

1. Determine whether the inter-vnet-link property is set to off.

   primary#  ldm list -e domain-name
   VSW
   
       NAME         MACADDRESS        NET-DEV  DVID|PVID|VIDs
       ----         ----------        -------  --------------
       primary-vsw0 00:14:4f:fb:86:af net0     1|1|--
               ....
               INTER-VNET-LINK :on/auto              MODE :--
               VSW-RELAY-MODE  :local

2. Disable inter-vnet links if the inter-vnet-link value is auto or on.

   primary# ldm set-vsw inter-vnet-link=off primary-vsw0

3. Set the vsw-relay-mode property value to remote.

   primary# ldm set-vsw vsw-relay-mode=remote primary-vsw0

4. Verify that the vsw-relay-mode property is set to remote.

   primary#  ldm list -e domain-name
   VSW
   
       NAME         MACADDRESS          NET-DEV   DVID|PVID|VIDs
       ----         ----------          -------   --------------
       primary-vsw0 00:14:4f:fb:86:af   net0      1|1|--
               ....
               INTER-VNET-LINK :off              MODE :--
               VSW-RELAY-MODE  :remote
