Flow interface configurations can include references to flow identifiers (such as VLAN IDs) that trace the path of services through the device interfaces and connectivities in multipoint and point-to-point service arrangements.
A Flow interface configuration is created automatically when you create a flow interface. As with other entities and entity configurations, you specify the Flow Interface Configuration specification in the Flow Interface specification. Unlike other entities, however, Flow Interface specifications can be associated with only one configuration specification.
When working with Flow Interface Configuration specifications, see the following topics:
Use the Flow Interface Configuration Specification editor to model flow interface configurations.
When working with the Flow Interface Configuration Specification editor, see the following topics:
Use the Flow Interface Specs tab to select, add, and remove the Flow Interface specifications that use this Flow Interface Configuration specification. A Flow Interface specification can be associated with only one Flow Interface Configuration specification, but a Flow Interface Configuration specification can be associated with multiple Flow Interface specifications.
You must use this tab to relate a Flow Interface specification to its Flow Interface Configuration specification only when the Flow Interface specification and Flow Interface Configuration specification are in separate cartridges and the Flow Interface specification can exist without the Flow Interface Configuration specification.
If both the Flow Interface specification and Flow Interface Configuration specification are in the same cartridge, make the association from the Flow Interface specification.
