Create dynamic vEthernet interfaces of the Cisco Nexus 5548UP Switches, which entails less
logical configuration but sacrifices some customization. vEthernet interfaces are dynamically
created as the server boots up, with IDs greater than 32768. Once the vEthernet interfaces are
created and the configuration is saved, the interfaces remain the same across reboots.
For more information, see the Cisco white paper:
Network Adapter Virtualization Design (Adapter-FEX)
with Cisco Nexus 5500 Switches and Cisco Nexus 2232 Fabric Extenders

Statically configuring vEthernet interfaces
This topic explains how to statically configure dual vNIC (fail-over) vEthernet interfaces on the Cisco
Nexus 5548UP Switches.
About this task
The server in this example (Server 7) is connected to port Eth1/7 on both Cisco Nexus 5548UP Switches,
as shown in the following illustration. Your configuration may be different.
