+### Setting Up a Node with Multiple NICs
+
+* First, configure hardware interfaces in the VPP startup config, as
+described [here](https://github.com/contiv/vpp/blob/master/docs/VPP_CONFIG.md#multi-nic-configuration).
+
+* For each interface owned by Linux, you need to provide individual
+ configuration for each interface used by VPP in the Node Configuration
+ for thenode in the `contiv-vpp.yaml`. For example, if both `ens3` and
+ `ens4` are known to Linux, then put the following stanza into the node's
+ NodeConfig:
+```
+...
+ NodeConfig:
+ - NodeName: "ubuntu-1"
+ StealInterface: "ens3"
+ StealInterface: "ens4"
+...
+```
+ If only `ens3` is known to Linux, you only put a line for `ens3` into the
+ above NodeConfig.
+
