+Create Host-Interface
+++++++++++++++++++++++
+Summary/Usage
+-------------
+
+create host-interface name <*ifname*> [*hw-addr <*mac-addr*>]
+
+Description
+------------
+
+Create a host interface that will attach to a linux AF_PACKET interface, one side of a veth pair. The veth pair must already exist. Once created, a new host interface will exist in VPP with the name 'host-<*ifname*>', where '<*ifname*>' is the name of the specified veth pair. Use the `show interface` command to display host interface details.
+
+This command has the following optional parameters:
+
+ hw-addr <*mac-addr*> - Optional ethernet address, can be in either X:X:X:X:X:X unix or X.X.X cisco format
+
+Example Usage
+-------------
+
+ Example of how to create a host interface tied to one side of an existing linux veth pair named vpp1:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create host-interface name vpp1
+
+ host-vpp1
+
+ Once the host interface is created, enable the interface using:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Summary/Usage
+--------------
+
+create loopback interface [mac <*mac-addr*>] [instance <*instance*>]
+
+Description
+------------
+
+Create a loopback interface. Optionally, a MAC Address can be provided. If not provided, de:ad:00:00:00:<*loopId*> will be used.
+
+Example Usage
+--------------
+ The following two command syntaxes are equivalent:
+
+ .. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# loopback create-interface [mac <*mac-addr*>] [instance <*instance*>]
+
+ vpp# create loopback interface [mac <*mac-addr*>] [instance <*instance*>]

+
+
+Create Sub-Interfaces
+++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+This command is used to add VLAN IDs to interfaces, also known as
+subinterfaces. The primary input to this command is the *interface*
+and *subId* (subinterface Id) parameters. If no additional VLAN ID is
+provide, the VLAN ID is assumed to be the *subId*. The VLAN ID and
+*subId* can be different, but this is not recommended.
+
+This command has several variations:
+
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*> - Create a subinterface
+ to process packets with a given 802.1q VLAN ID (same value as the
+ *subId*).
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*> default - Adding the
+ *default* parameter indicates that packets with VLAN IDs that do
+ not match any other subinterfaces should be sent to this
+ subinterface.
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*> untagged - Adding the
+ *untagged* parameter indicates that packets no VLAN IDs should be
+ sent to this subinterface.
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*>-<*subId*> - Create a
+ range of subinterfaces to handle a range of VLAN IDs.
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*> dot1q|dot1ad <*vlanId*>|any
+ [exact-match] - Use this command to specify the outer VLAN ID, to
+ either be explicited or to make the VLAN ID different from the
+ *subId*.
+- **create sub-interfaces** <*interface*> <*subId*> dot1q|dot1ad <*vlanId*>|any
+ inner-dot1q <*vlanId*>|any [exact-match] - Use this command to
+ specify the outer VLAN ID and the innner VLAN ID.
+
+When *dot1q* or *dot1ad* is explictly entered, subinterfaces can be
+configured as either *exact-match* or *non-exact match*. *Non-exact match* is
+the CLI default. If *exact-match* is specified, packets must have the
+same number of VLAN tags as the configuration. For *non-exact-match*,
+packets must at least that number of tags. L3 (routed) interfaces must
+be configured as exact-match. L2 interfaces are typically configured as
+non-exact-match. If *dot1q* or *dot1ad* is NOT entered, then the
+default behavior is *exact-match*.
+
+Use the **show interface** command to display all subinterfaces.
+
+Summary/Usage
+-------------
+
+.. code-block:: shell
+
+ create sub-interfaces <interface> {<subId> [default|untagged]} | {<subId>-<subId>} | {<subId> dot1q|dot1ad <vlanId>|any [inner-dot1q <vlanId>|any] [exact-match]}
+
+Example Usage
+--------------
+
+Example of how to create a VLAN subinterface 11 to process packets on 802.1q VLAN ID 11:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11
+
+The previous example is shorthand and is equivalent to:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 11 exact-match
+
+Example of how to create a subinterface number that is different from the VLAN ID:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100
+
+Examples of how to create q-in-q and q-in-any subinterfaces:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q 200
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q any
+
+Examples of how to create dot1ad interfaces:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1ad 11
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1ad 100 inner-dot1q 200
+
+Examples of *exact-match* versus non-exact match. A packet with outer VLAN 100 and inner VLAN 200 would match this interface, because the default is non-exact match:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 dot1q 100
+
+However, the same packet would NOT match this interface because *exact-match* is specified and only one VLAN is configured, but packet contains two VLANs:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 dot1q 100 exact-match
+
+Example of how to created a subinterface to process untagged packets:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 untagged
+
+Example of how to created a subinterface to process any packet with a VLAN ID that does not match any other subinterface:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 7 default
+
+When subinterfaces are created, they are in the down state. Example of how to enable a newly created subinterface:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# set interface GigabitEthernet2/0/0.7 up

++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+Summary/Usage
+-------------
+
+set interface l2 bridge <*interface*> <*bridge-domain-id*> [bvi|uu-fwd] [shg]
+
+Description
+-------------
+
+Use this command put an interface into Layer 2 bridge domain. If a bridge-domain with the provided bridge-domain-id does not exist, it will be created. Interfaces in a bridge-domain forward packets to other interfaces in the same bridge-domain based on destination mac address. To remove an interface from a the Layer 2 bridge domain, put the interface in a different mode, for example Layer 3 mode.
+
+Optionally, an interface can be added to a Layer 2 bridge-domain as a Bridged Virtual Interface (bvi). Only one interface in a Layer 2 bridge-domain can be a bvi.
+
+Optionally, a split-horizon group can also be specified. This defaults to 0 if not specified.
+
+Example Usage
+--------------
+Example of how to configure a Layer 2 bridge-domain with three interfaces (where 200 is the bridge-domain-id):
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+ vpp# set interface l2 bridge GigabitEthernet0/8/0.200 200
+
+This interface is added a BVI interface:

-- **create sub-interfaces <interface> <subId> untagged** - Adding the
- '*untagged*' parameter indicates that packets no VLAN IDs should be
- sent to this subinterface.
-- **create sub-interfaces <interface> <subId>-<subId>** - Create a
- range of subinterfaces to handle a range of VLAN IDs.
-- **create sub-interfaces <interface> <subId> dot1q|dot1ad <vlanId>|any
- [exact-match]** - Use this command to specify the outer VLAN ID, to
- either be explicited or to make the VLAN ID different from the
- '*subId*'.
-- **create sub-interfaces <interface> <subId> dot1q|dot1ad <vlanId>|any
- inner-dot1q <vlanId>|any [exact-match]** - Use this command to
- specify the outer VLAN ID and the innner VLAN ID.
-
-When '*dot1q*' or '*dot1ad*' is explictly entered, subinterfaces can be
-configured as either exact-match or non-exact match. Non-exact match is
-the CLI default. If '*exact-match*' is specified, packets must have the
-same number of VLAN tags as the configuration. For non-exact-match,
-packets must at least that number of tags. L3 (routed) interfaces must
-be configured as exact-match. L2 interfaces are typically configured as
-non-exact-match. If '*dot1q*' or '*dot1ad*' is NOT entered, then the
-default behavior is exact-match.
-
-Use the '*show interface*' command to display all subinterfaces.

-Summary/Usage
--------------
-
-.. code-block:: shell
-
- create sub-interfaces <interface> {<subId> [default|untagged]} | {<subId>-<subId>} | {<subId> dot1q|dot1ad <vlanId>|any [inner-dot1q <vlanId>|any] [exact-match]}.

-Examples
---------
-
-Example of how to create a VLAN subinterface 11 to process packets on 802.1q VLAN ID 11:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11
-
-The previous example is shorthand and is equivalent to:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 11 exact-match
-
-Example of how to create a subinterface number that is different from the VLAN ID:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100
-
-Examples of how to create q-in-q and q-in-any subinterfaces:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q 200
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1q 100 inner-dot1q any
-
-Examples of how to create dot1ad interfaces:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 11 dot1ad 11
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 12 dot1ad 100 inner-dot1q 200
-
-Examples of '*exact-match*' versus non-exact match. A packet with outer VLAN 100 and inner VLAN 200 would match this interface, because the default is non-exact match:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 dot1q 100
-
-However, the same packet would NOT match this interface because '*exact-match*' is specified and only one VLAN is configured, but packet contains two VLANs:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 dot1q 100 exact-match
-
-Example of how to created a subinterface to process untagged packets:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 5 untagged
-
-Example of how to created a subinterface to process any packet with a VLAN ID that does not match any other subinterface:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# create sub-interfaces GigabitEthernet2/0/0 7 default
-
-When subinterfaces are created, they are in the down state. Example of how to enable a newly created subinterface:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
- vpp# set interface GigabitEthernet2/0/0.7 up
-
