Plao interfaces are down in Vmware work station

Hi

I have installed Plao in VMware workstation and I can access the device From GUI and CLI but only through the management interface.
Other interfaces are showing down, how to fix this?

THanks for your reply.
I have configured the interface and now the interface is up and I have assigned IP as well.

Problem is Palo is not responding for the ARP message. packet capture is taken on the firewall

you need to assign an interface management profile with 'ping' enabled before ping will work

you may also need to set the interfaces to promiscuous mode in vmware before the firewall interfaces become available

Thanks for the reply, but for your information I have already disabled promiscuous mode as well as I have enabled all protocol for the specific interface which i am pinging.
