I am trying to configure the Ethernet interfaces in an Arista Switch that is running on a vm (using vmware workstation). I am able to configure the management interface according to the user guid given but during configuring ethernet interfaces using the same procedure i am getting the following error:
localhost(config-if-Eth1)# ip address 172.16.204.4/24
! IP configuration will be ignored while interface Ethernet1 is not a routed port.
If someone could provide some help in this regard.
Thanks in advance.
The interface was in switchport mode.
running
no switchporton ethernet 1 solved the issue.
