Hyperscale firewall inter-VDOM link acceleration

Hyperscale firewall inter-VDOM link acceleration

If hyperscale firewall support is enabled, you apply NP7 acceleration to inter-VDOM link traffic by creating inter-VDOM links with the type set to npupair. For example:

config system vdom-link

edit <name>

set type npupair

end

The command creates a pair of interfaces that are connected logically. For example, the following command:

config system vdom-link

edit vdom-link0

set type npupair

end

Creates two interfaces, named vdom-link00 and vdom-link01.

The default NPU VDOM inter-VDOM links (for example npu0_vlink0, npu0_vlink1, npu1_vlink0, and so on) are not supported for links to or from VDOMs with hyperscale firewall acceleration enabled.
