* Create interfaces in KVM > **VQFX-RE01** > They apper as emX ?
  * Rebooting the vcp also reboots the VFP
\\

The RE is used to connect to other network devices or hosts including the PFE. The initial port names are em0 to em14 but they are not used to communicate with other devices. The actual connectivity ports are xe-0/0/0 to xe-0/0/11. The port mappings of the RE are below:
  em0 - management interface (fxp0)
  em1 - internal link
  em2 - unusable
  em3 - xe-0/0/0
  em4 - xe-0/0/1
  em5 - xe-0/0/2
  em6 - xe-0/0/3
  em7 - xe-0/0/4
  em8 - xe-0/0/5
  em9 - xe-0/0/6
  em10 - xe-0/0/7
  em11 - xe-0/0/8
  em12 - xe-0/0/9
  em13 - xe-0/0/10
  em14 - xe-0/0/11

  * In the linux instances, interfaces are created but ifcfg files need to be written and network restarted
  * in the vqfx, reassign macs (manually).
    * xe-0/0/1 is the 1st one to be used.
