Cannot configure 2 interfaces in the VRF Mgmt-vrf?

I am having an issue with a management only interface g 0/0 that is part of the Mgmt-vrf, so as a part of troubleshooting, I want to move this connectin to a network interface g 1/0/24. See g 0/0 config below:

Cisco 3650 IOS 16.9.4

!
interface GigabitEthernet0/0
description MGMT --> IO-MGMT-SW5 1/0/21 Conn ID 29.17
vrf forwarding Mgmt-vrf
ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x
speed 1000
no negotiation auto
spanning-tree portfast

!

When I apply the config to the g 1/0/24 interface, it takes the commands, but does not display the "VRF forwarding Mgmt-vrf". 

!
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24
description MGMT --> IO-MGMT-SW5 1/0/21 Conn ID 29.17
no switchport
ip address x.x.x.x x.x.x.x
speed 1000
spanning-tree portfast
end

!

Is this because only one interface can be in the Mgmt VRF at one time?

are you configuring the same IP address?

 

You have N number of the interface in same VRF,

 

you need to follow the order of operation :

 

default interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/24

vrf forwarding Mgmt-vrf   - as soon you issue this command the interface belongs to VRF all the config will be lost.

 

Then configure IP address

Thank you. I was able to test this with a different IP and it appears to be successful
