Nexus 3548 "switchport mode trunk" missing

[chrislafty]

Just fired up a couple of Nexus 3548 and getting ready to play around with vPC.  All I've really done is the initial start up wizard and create a management interface on mgmt0.  I've enabled feature lacp and vpc.  When I do something as simple as putting an interface in trunk mode, I get this:

xyz-nexus-01# configure t
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
ech-nexus-01(config)# interface e1/1
ech-nexus-01(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
                                         ^
% Invalid command at '^' marker.

Switchport mode trunk isn't even available.  my google searches have failed me, what am I missing? I've reloaded, but it made no difference.  I also have a L3 enterprise license installed. 

system:    version 6.0(2)A6(1)

Are the ports in routed mode by default ?  Did you make them a switchport?

I bet that is it:

Port          Name               Status    Vlan      Duplex  Speed   Type
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Eth1/1        Peer Link to ECH-N connected routed    full    10G     SFP-H10GB-C

It was one of the questions during the startup wizard.

I had to issue the command "switchport" to the interface. I'm only familiar with catalyst switches.  This change should be fun :/
