Nimbostratus3rd interface on BIG-IQ VE
Hi, on my BIG-IQ VE 5.1 I have 3 VMXNET3 network adapters. CLI command ifconfig shows all interfaces (eth0,1,2) but if I connect over the Web GUI I can see just interfaces 1.1 and 1.2 Is it possible to use the 3rd interface as well and assign another VLAN to this interface. Unfortunately I couldn't find any instruction how to do it? Thank you in advance.

The "missing" interface, is the management. That is visible from the Linux system (CLI), but not from GUI.
Greetings,
Did you add the third nic on your hypervisor? I added one using ESX and it showed up both in TMSH and the UI:tmsh list net interface net interface 1.1 { if-index 48 mac-address 00:50:56:92:5f:50 media-fixed 10000T-FD media-max 10000T-FD mtu 9198 } net interface 1.2 { if-index 64 mac-address 00:50:56:92:5e:44 media-fixed 10000T-FD media-max 10000T-FD mtu 9198 } net interface mgmt { if-index 32 mac-address 00:50:56:92:6f:e2 media-active 100TX-FD } Add nic on ESX. Reboot. tmsh list net interface net interface 1.1 { if-index 48 mac-address 00:50:56:92:5f:50 media-fixed 10000T-FD media-max 10000T-FD mtu 9198 } net interface 1.2 { if-index 64 mac-address 00:50:56:92:5e:44 media-fixed 10000T-FD media-max 10000T-FD mtu 9198 } net interface 1.3 { if-index 80 mac-address 00:50:56:92:4d:6b media-fixed 10000T-FD media-max 10000T-FD mtu 9198 } net interface mgmt { if-index 32 mac-address 00:50:56:92:6f:e2 media-active 100TX-FD }
Janus-PaulThank you for helping with this. Just the static route has to be added for the interace. It works now:).
