Chapter 9 Using the Management Ethernet Interface

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

NTP Server

To allow the software clock to be synchronized by a Network Time Protocol (NTP) time server over the
Management Ethernet interface, enter the ntp server vrf Mgmt-intf command and specify the IP
address of the device providing the update.
The following CLI provides an example of this procedure.
Router(config)# ntp server vrf Mgmt-intf 172.17.1.1
