  • pending: A virtual interface is in this state from the time that it is created until the virtual interface is ready to forward traffic.

  • available: A virtual interface that is able to forward traffic.

  • down: A virtual interface that is BGP down.

  • testing: A virtual interface is in this state immediately after calling StartBgpFailoverTest and remains in this state during the duration of the test.

  • deleting: A virtual interface is in this state immediately after calling DeleteVirtualInterface until it can no longer forward traffic.

  • deleted: A virtual interface that cannot forward traffic.
