vCMP logical interfaces throughput

Hello, we currently have 2 BIG-IP 15800 each one connected with 2 100Gb interfaces.  So i have  a guest vcmp with 8vCPU and 8 logical interfaces 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and so on to 0.8. In the cli-console or...

    Said another way, there isn't a hard cap on bandwidth to the guest but there are practical limits in place for most traffic use cases.
