Information About SVIs
For security reasons, by default, you can configure one SVI between the MSFC and the ASASM; you
can enable multiple SVIs, but be sure you do not misconfigure your network.
For example, with multiple SVIs, you could accidentally allow traffic to pass around the ASASM by
assigning both the inside and outside VLANs to the MSFC. (See Figure 1-1.)
