VRF

VRFs are network forwarding spaces under a tenant, isolated from each other unless inter-VRF routes are explicit configured.

VRF(Virtual Routing and Forwarding)

Virtual routing and forwarding technology achieves the isolation of data or services by creating multiple routing tables on a layer 3 forwarding device. It is commonly used in MPLS VPN, firewall and other application scenarios that require isolation. VRF, also known as VPN Instance, is a virtualization technology that creates multiple VPN instances on physical devices. Each VPN instance has independent interfaces, routing tables, routing protocol processes, etc.

VRF management

New VRF

Manage VRFs in "Tenant"→"Config"→"Sites"→"More Operations"→"Associate VRF" to enable it for sites.
