Hello All,
I have a very basic issue with adding a sub interface. Iam new to this setup so maybe Iam missing something. Our Cisco 5512 appliance has a few subinterfaces e.g
Interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1011 , is up, line protocol is up MAC address e4d3.f1cf.eb7d, MTU 1500 IP address 10.110.1.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0 Traffic Statistics for 4539905 packets input, 3299328704 bytes 3499997 packets output, 1158198422 bytes 6374 packets dropped Interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1013 is up, line protocol is up MAC address e4d3.f1cf.eb7d, MTU 1500 IP address 10.110.3.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0 Traffic Statistics for : 134386 packets input, 101134521 bytes 132145 packets output, 50793453 bytes 13987 packets dropped Interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1014 , is up, line protocol is up MAC address e4d3.f1cf.eb7d, MTU 1500 IP address 10.110.4.1, subnet mask 255.255.255.0 Traffic Statistics for 16873366 packets input, 4347409211 bytes 9294342 packets output, 6108270932 bytes 5968 packets dropped
When I try to add a new subinterface like
scl2-fwl01/admin(config)# interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1016 ^ ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker. scl2-fwl01/admin(config)#
Am I doing this right ? I tried the same using ASDM and was able to specify all the interface vlan values, ip and netmask but when I try to save it , it gives me this in the java console
Exception in thread "AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException

Maybe some license issue ?

Any help will be appreciated.

How many subinterfaces total do you currently have configured? (You cannot exceed 100 on that platform.)
07-20-2015 04:16 PM
About 15
07-20-2015 07:38 PM
So you're well within the platform limit. The license does not affect that limit.
Your config command paste did not convey well. Can you tell us exactly what part of the command the parser is rejecting?

Thanks.
the error comes when i type
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1016
^
ERROR: % Invalid input detected at '^' marker
The ^ points right under the sub interface number
If I try an existing interface it works just fine
scl2-fwl01/admin(config)# interface GigabitEthernet0/1.1015
scl2-fwl01/admin(config-if)#
I wonder If Iam missing some step.

It almost looks like a bug though a quick bug search didn't show any as far as I could see.
You aren't running in multiple context mode are you?
What does it tell you if you type (in config mode):
interface GigabitEthernet0/1.?
My ASA gives me
configure mode commands/options: <1-4294967295> GigabitEthernet interface number
07-21-2015 09:04 AM
Yes, it only shows me my existing vlans .Strange
scl2-fwl01/admin(config)# interface GigabitEthernet0/1.? configure mode commands/options: 0/1.100 0/1.1001 0/1.101 0/1.1011 0/1.1013 0/1.1014 0/1.1015 0/1.102 0/1.103 0/1.120 0/1.166 0/1.666

If you have multiple context mode running, those may have been allocated to your current context from the system context.
