The IP address for side A/B of the SVI interface under Logical Interface Profile #347

Closed psaneem closed 2 years ago

Is there a method in the toolkit that allows me to pass the side A and Side B ip addresses for the SVI , i only see l3if.set_addr('x.x.x.x/y') which sets one IP for the SVI ..

I might be wrong, but I think it's handled a little differently on ACI and there isn't an A/B + HSRP address. It should just be the gateway address.

thanks for the reply @MTWiley , let me ask it in a different way, with the acitoolkit is there a difference between a normal port channel and a Virtual port channel because for the latter then we will need a Side A/B for the SVI

My understanding is that a VPC would aggregate links from across multiple leafs vs a port channel which would only aggregate links on a single leaf. These port channel or virtual port channel are L2 constructs and wouldn't really have an effect on an L3 interface from my understanding so the same logic as above would apply ACI only has the IP, no A+B+HSRP, it's just the single virtual IP that lives on the aggregated link.
