The Management Ethernet interface VRF supports both IPv4 and IPv6 address families.

Common Ethernet Management Tasks

Because users can perform most tasks on a router through the Management Ethernet interface, many
tasks can be done by accessing the router through the Management Ethernet interface.
This section documents tasks that might be common or slightly tricky on the Cisco ASR 1000 Series
Routers. It is not intended as a comprehensive list of all tasks that can be done using the Management
Ethernet interface.
This covers the following processes:

Viewing the VRF Configuration

The VRF configuration for the Management Ethernet interface is viewable using the show
running-config vrf command.
This example shows the default VRF configuration:
Router# show running-config vrf
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 351 bytes
vrf definition Mgmt-intf
!
address-family ipv4
OL-16506-10
Prevents transit traffic from traversing the router. Because all of the SPA interfaces and the
Management Ethernet interface are automatically in different VRFs, no transit traffic can enter the
Management Ethernet interface and leave a SPA interface, or vice versa.
Improved security of the interface. Because the Mgmt-intf VRF has its own routing table as a result
of being in its own VRF, routes can only be added to the routing table of the Management Ethernet
interface if explicitly entered by a user.
