Hello all,
I have an implemented VASI interfaces on my ASR1001. Each of the vasiright and vasileft belong to different VRFs, and there is also a ZBF running along them. My question is regarding accounting. When I look at the accounting numbers, I can see one VASI getting Inputs and the other VASI getting Outputs. Why is this unidirectional, when actual traffic flow is bidirectional between the VASI interfaces.

If you look at the vasiright, we will see input, but no output. Is there any workaround this, or I just don't understand how the VASI traffic flow works.
It is as VASI left and right are two halves of the same interface. Is that how I should be looking at it?
Thanks,
Dino
