cl_interface_policy - Configure interface enforcement policy on Cumulus Linux

New in version 2.1.

Synopsis

This module affects the configuration files located in the interfaces folder defined by ifupdown2. Interfaces port and port ranges listed in the “allowed” parameter define what interfaces will be available on the switch. If the user runs this module and has an interface configured on the switch, but not found in the “allowed” list, this interface will be unconfigured. By default this is /etc/network/interface.d For more details go the Configuring Interfaces at http://docs.cumulusnetworks.com.
