Role of a workload VPN intent

A workload VPN intent represents a specific subset of fabric resources (one or more fabrics, subnets, and sub-interfaces). After it has been defined, a workload VPN intent can be allocated to a single source of demand upon the participating fabric or fabrics. For example, all of the traffic from a single customer, or tenant, can be directed to only those resources encompassed by a particular workload VPN intent.

The workload VPN intent is embodied in a set of node configuration files that, when the intent is deployed, cause the participating nodes to behave as described in the intent.
