Chapter 10 Using the Management Ethernet Interface
Common Ethernet Management Tasks
Below are two simple examples of configuring an IPv4 adress and an IPv6 address on the Management
Ethernet interface.
IPv4 Example
Router(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0
Router(config-if)# ip address A.B.C.D A.B.C.D
IPv6 Example
Router(config)# interface GigabitEthernet 0
Router(config-if)# ipv6 address X:X:X:X::X
Telnetting over the Management Ethernet Interface
Telnetting can be done through the VRF using the Management Ethernet interface.
In the following example, the router telnets to 172.17.1.1 through the Management Ethernet interface
VRF:
Router# telnet 172.17.1.1 /vrf Mgmt-intf
Pinging over the Management Ethernet Interface
Pinging other interfaces using the Management Ethernet interface is done through the VRF.
In the following example, the router pings the interface with the IP address of 172.17.1.1 through the
Management Ethernet interface:
Router# ping vrf Mgmt-intf 172.17.1.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.17.1.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
.!!!!
Success rate is 80 percent (4/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/1/1 ms
Copy Using TFTP or FTP
To copy a file using TFTP through the Management Ethernet interface, the ip tftp source-interface
GigabitEthernet 0 command must be entered before entering the copy tftp command because the copy
tftp command has no option of specifying a VRF name.
Similarly, to copy a file using FTP through the Management Ethernet interface, the ip ftp
source-interface GigabitEthernet 0 command must be entered before entering the copy ftp command
because the copy ftp command has no option of specifying a VRF name.
TFTP Example
Router(config)# ip tftp source-interface gigabitethernet 0
FTP Example
Router(config)# ip ftp source-interface gigabitethernet 0
