VRF - Definition mode

When configuring VRFs, the VRF definition mode can be used to give a VRF a name and to enter VRF configuration mode. This can be done using the following command sequence:

Router(config)# vrf definition vrf1

Once definition mode is entered, various options for configuring the VRF are made available. The following context sensitive help shows some of these:

R1(config)#vrf definition vrf1
