        }
}

If a PCI card hosts several functions, use this command to associate a data plane interface with one of those functions. You must use this command with the interfaces dataplane interface-name hardware pci-slot slot-number command.

Use the set form of this command to bind a data plane interface to a function number for a PCI NIC.

Use the delete form of this command to unbind a data plane interface from a PCI function number.

Use the show form of this command to display the hardware PCI function that is bound to a data plane interface.
