VIFs (Virtual Interfaces) of nodes
==================================

.. versionadded:: 1.28

Attaching and detaching VIFs (Virtual Interfaces) to or from a node are done
via the ``v1/nodes/{node_ident}/vifs`` endpoint. Attaching a VIF to a node
means that a VIF will be mapped to a free port or port group of the specified
node.
