attribute

cpRole

Identifies the protocol layering information the CP uses for connectivity purposes and associated information. There shall be one cpProtocol for each layer protocol as indicated by the attribute layerProtocol.

order


Note: Did not add this due to presence of vnicOrder

Integer0..1

The order of the NIC to be assigned on the compute instance (e.g. 2 for eth2).

Note: when binding more than one port to a single compute (aka multi vNICs) and ordering is desired, it is mandatory that all ports will be set with an order

value. The order values shall represent a positive, arithmetic progression that starts with 0 (i.e. 0, 1, 2,..., n).


If the property is not present, it shall be left to the VIM to assign a value when creating the instance.
