What is cvnVethIfProfileAlias?

This is the alias name for the applied profile as it appears in the external virtualization management server, which may differ from the switch-side profile name. An admin cares because it bridges naming between the network switch's view and the virtualization administrator's view, useful when the two teams use different terminology for the same profile. For example, a network admin seeing the switch-side profile name can cross-reference this alias to find the matching name a VMware admin would recognize in vCenter.
