We dropped trying to support a virtual MS PIC awhile back, mostly because there wasn't enough commercial interest (ie, $$) and the performance goals were getting tough to meet.

Subject: MSMPC on vMX 23.2
Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to create an MS-MPC on a vMX. I found this snipet below and the vMX does come up with a MSMPC, however the ge interfaces on fpc0 do not come up with the addition of the "pic-name". There is also no ms interface which may not show up until I enable inline-services on the fpc.
I am running the virtio device-type and wonder if someone could post a working "vmx.conf" config with an MSMPC and still have ge ports on fpc0. My guess is a need to define the ms interface and give a MAC like the ge interfaces.
thanks
vmx1.conf
