You use this procedure to create a second-level virtual interface on a single filer. You
follow this procedure when you have available two switches configured for multiple-
port connections and four or more interfaces. After you complete this procedure, all
interfaces are active at once until there is a switch failure, in which case connectivity
is maintained by the links to one switch even if the other switch fails.
