Configure Management route

To set up remote access to OS10, configure a management route after you assign an IPv4 or IPv6 address to the Management port. The Management port uses the default management route to communicate with a different network. The management route allows you to separate Management traffic from data traffic.

  1. (Optional) Ensure that the DHCP client is disabled on the Management interface in INTERFACE mode. 
    no ip address dhcp
  2. Configure a management route for the Management port in CONFIGURATION mode. Repeat the command to configure multiple routes. 
    management route {ipv4-address/mask | ipv6-address/prefix-length}
{forwarding-router-address | managementethernet}
    • ipv4-address/mask — Enter an IPv4 network address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D), then a subnet mask in /prefix-length format (/x).
    • ipv6-address/prefix-length — Enter an IPv6 address in x:x:x:x::x format with the prefix length in /x format. The prefix range is /0 to /128.
    • forwarding-router-address — Enter the next-hop IPv4/IPv6 address of a forwarding router that serves as a management gateway to connect to a different subnet.
    • managementethernet — Send traffic on the Management port for the configured IPv4/IPv6 subnet.
NOTE: Management routes are separate from IPv4 and IPv6 routes and are only used to manage the switch through the Management port.
NOTE: Do not configure the same prefix in both the static route and management route. If the same prefix has to be used, use management VRF.
NOTE: Management VRF is currently not supported on the MX7000 platforms.

Configure management route 

OS10(config)# management route 10.10.20.0/24 10.1.1.1
OS10(config)# management route 172.16.0.0/16 managementethernet
