%Invalid interface type and number
In order for this to work, you need to add a HWIC-4ESW
module from the physical modules. Then use sh int
to see what are the interfaces are named.
The description for it is : The HWIC-4ESW provides four switching ports.

I am trying to apply a scenario from the Cisco CCENT book where a 2811 Router uses VLANs. I have applied the network as is in the book inside my Packet Tracer.
Here is the section in the book and next is my implementation and the error I am getting.
//book example Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#hostname Corp Corp(config)#enable secret myPassword Corp(config)#interface vlan 1 Corp(config-if)#description myDescriptionIsAwesome1 Corp(config-if)#ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 Corp(config-if)#no shutdown Corp(config-if)#int f1/0 Corp(config-if)#description myDescriptionIsAwesome2 Corp(config-if)#no shutdown Corp(config-if)#int f1/1 Corp(config-if)#description myDescriptionIsAwesome3 Corp(config-if)#no shut //my implementation in Packet Tracer Router#config t Enter configuration commands, one per line.

I get the
%Invalid interface type and number
error. What can be the reason? Is there anything I should add to the router after adding it in the packet tracer works space? Moreover, how do I create the Virtual Switch once I have set the router? Is it through the GUI or it is automatically done?
