3rd 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.

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-Paul

Thank you for helping with this. Just the static route has to be added for the interace. It works now:).

The "missing" interface, is the management. That is visible from the Linux system (CLI), but not from GUI.
