Configuring subinterfaces from the CLI

L1 Bithead

Hi,

 

Is it possible to configure subinterfaces from the CLI? I've been trying different sequences of commands but so far I'm not having any luck. From the GUI I have no issue it is only from the CLI.

 

Thanks

@Modo2016,

It's a little odd.

set network interface ethernet ethernet1/3 layer2 units ethernet1/3.1 tag 404

Essentially I'm specifying that it's an ethernet interface, the interface in question is ethernet1/3, it's a layer2 interface, units is simply what PA actually calls a subinterface on the backend, the subinterface I'm creating is ethernet1/3.1, and I'm tagging it with 404. 

Hope that helps!
