.1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.710.1.1.2 · 1 row entry · 1 columns
A list of virtual ethernet interfaces which supports
pinning functionality in VSM.
          
Pinning is a mechanism of directing traffic to or
from a interface through a particular interface
in a switch.
          
By default, system use load balancing algorithm to pick
the best possible physical interface automatically.
However, user may use pinning functionality to
instrument the finite control on the traffic flow
between virtual ethernet interfaces and actual physical
interfaces in VSM.
          
For example, user may want to configure that packets
from a particular virtual ethernet interface always go
out through first interface in the port channel
irrespective of load balancing policy on the switch.
In order to achieve this, user can pin the virtual
ethernet interface to first interface of the switch.

A list of connectees which are currently attached to
virtual ethernet interfaces.
          
Virtual machine connects to a physical entity
using a virtual ethernet interface. In this scenario
the Virtual Machine is called connectee, physical entity
is called host.  Whenever a Virtual Machine is connected
using virtual ethernet interface we have mapping between
physical and virtual interfaces.  This object gives the
mapping of all virtual ehternet interfaces to their
corresponding physical entities.
cvnConnecteeEntry entry .1.3.6.1.4.1.9.9.710.1.2.1.1
An entry containing management information
for a particular connectee.

Entry is created when a connectee connects to VSM.

Entry is deleted when a connectee has been disconnected.
