Remarks
Assign an interface to the inline
forwarding entry
port inline-interfaces id
Required
By default, the interface does not
belong to any inline forwarding
entry.
Two interfaces must be assigned to
the forward-type inline forwarding
entry while one interface is
required for the reflect or blackhole
type.
CAUTION:
• An interface can only belong to one inline forwarding entry, and the last configured port
inline-interfaces
id
command on an interface takes effect.
• Subinterfaces can be assi
g
ned to inline Layer 2 forwardin
g
entries. To make these entries take effect, the
main interface must be assigned to the VLAN of which the ID is used as the subinterface number. For
example, if subinterface GigabitEthernet 0/1.2 is assigned to an inline forwarding entry, interface
GigabitEthernet 0/1 must be assigned to VLAN 2 so that the inline Layer 2 forwarding can be
implemented.
• If an interface and its subinterface are assigned to different inline forwarding entries, the forwarding
entry with the main interface takes precedence. For example, interfaces GigabitEthernet 0/1 and
GigabitEthernet 0/2 are assigned to one inline forwarding entry, and the subinterfaces Gi

t
0/1.2 and GigabitEthernet 0/2.3 are assigned to another inline forwarding entry; then the data
received from GigabitEthernet 0/1 is forwarded through the interface GigabitEthernet 0/2, and vise
versa.

Forward-type inline Layer 2 forwarding
configuration example
Network requirements
Configure forward-type inline Layer 2 forwarding between GigabitEthernet 0/1 and GigabitEthernet
0/2. Then packets received on GigabitEthernet 0/1 can be forwarded through GigabitEthernet 0/2
directly, and vice versa.
