bind vmfex interfaces to exact fabric

Is it correct way to bind interface of virtual machine to exact fabric?

First, I created dynamic connection policy:

Then I used this policy to create virtual machine adapter template:

And finaly I created this adapter in virtual switch:

Is this enough or should I do something else? Should I change something here? I can't figure out how dynamic will distribute beetween fabrics. I would like have possibility to bind vmfex interfaces to exact fabric at virtual machine configuration. Is it possible with ucs vmfex?

The Protected Pref A or B option is how this is completed, if any Dynamic vNICs created using that connection policy will prefer the A fabric and will attempt to pin as such during creation.  However because ALL dynamic vNICs are protected and failover enabled, they will attempt a failover in events that would dictate one.
