Explanation

The command interface GigabitEthernet0.221 encapsulation dot1Q 221 is required to complete the subinterface configuration. In Cisco devices, when configuring a subinterface for use with a specific VLAN (such as for AWS Direct Connect), you must specify the IEEE 802.1Q encapsulation and VLAN ID. Here, .221 in the interface name indicates subinterface for VLAN 221, so the correct encapsulation command is necessary for proper Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity to AWS Direct Connect. Without this command, the subinterface will not be able to process or tag VLAN 221 traffic correctly, resulting in loss of connectivity.
