area-link
Overview
Use this command to create an area-link between a Virtual AMF Appliance (VAA)
host controller and an AMF container.
An AMF container is an isolated instance of AlliedWare Plus with its own network
interfaces, configuration, and file system. The features available inside an AMF
container are a sub-set of the features available on the host VAA. These features
enable the AMF container to function as a uniquely identifiable AMF master and
allows for multiple tenants (up to 60) to run on a single VAA host. See the
AMF Feature Overview and Configuration Guide
for more information on running
multiple tenants on a single VAA host.
Use the
no
variant of this command to remove an area-link from a container.

Usage
The AMF area-link connects the AMF controller on a VAA host to the AMF
container. Once a container has been created with the
and an area-link configured with the
area-link
command, it can be enabled using
the
command.
You can only configure a single area-link on a container. You will see the following
message if you try and configure a second one:
% AreaLink already configured for this container
Each container has two virtual interfaces:
•
Interface eth0, used to connect to the AMF controller on the VAA host via an
AMF area-link, configured using this area-link command.
•
Interface eth1, used to connect to the outside world using a bridged L2
network link, configured using the
command.
