This document describes the extension of an existing feature. L3 Delivery Interfaces are now supported on select EOS switches with Jericho2 and higher ASICs. As a result, DMF Managed Services that need an L3 Delivery Interface can now use the L3 Delivery Interface defined on the EOS switch.

With the DANZ Monitoring Fabric (DMF) 8.7 release, a DMF Controller will allow multiple managed services to share a delivery interface with an IP address, commonly called an L3 delivery interface. These interfaces redirect the packets processed by managed services to the required tool nodes for further analysis. Sharing an L3 delivery interface is useful when applying different actions to a packet that otherwise cannot be chained together in one managed service when sending it to the same destination.
