Using the Cisco NX-OS Setup Utility
Management Interface Configuration
Shutting Down the Management Interface
To shut down the management interface (mgmt0), you use the shutdown command. A system prompt requests
you confirm your action before it executes the command. You can use the force option to bypass this
confirmation.
The following example shuts down the interface without using the force option:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface mgmt 0
switch(config-if)# shutdown
Shutting down this interface will drop all telnet sessions.
Do you wish to continue (y/n)? y
The following example shuts down the interface using the force option:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface mgmt 0
switch(config-if)# shutdown force
