Using GUI, I am setting up a second software switch interface, but discovered when adding to the "interface members" that the source list shown to the right has nothing in the list. I expected to see "lan" and "wifi" so I can add those as interface members. Research indicates this has been a problem with others, and it was recommended that the following CLI commands would fix the problem:
conf sys int
edit port1
set description "LAN"
set alias "LAN"
next
end
However, when I enter "next" I get the following: Attribute 'vdom' must be set. Command fail. Return code 1.
I am not using virtual domains, so am at a total loss of where to go from here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I didn't know about soft-switch interface, but at least all vlan interface require "set vdom root" to be created even when vdom-admin is NOT enabled.
Thanks Toshi for your quick reply. Can you tell me how I should "set vdom root"?
Thanks,
DonD
I tried this:
conf sys int
edit port1
set vdom root
set description "LAN"
set alias "LAN"
next
end
Seems "set vdom root" worked, but now get the following right after "next":
Attribute 'interface' MUST be set.
Command fail. Return code 1
I think this just indicates I know little about FG CLI.
HELP, Please!
