Now to configure a node to actually use this newly created VRF go back to the main Build form and find the node you would like to configure this VRF, doubleclick the node to enter the //Edit Node// form, click the //VRFs// button to enter the VRF part of this node, click the new button and select the VRF you created earlier: {{:guides:reference:vendors:configure_node_vrf.png|}} make sure to set the value of //Vrf_management// to 1 and click the //Save// button. ===== Configure a VRF to be used for file transfers, using service-type ===== To update the VRF on multiple nodes is possible using the service-types and the CSV api or using XML. An example is given below. CSV_API.ini addition: [VrfMgmt] brief = Enable VRF management for a VRF on a node Hostname Vrf_id A service-type needs to be added with the following contents.
