Configuring General Router Features
Configuring the Management Ethernet Interface
To use the Management Ethernet interface for system management and remote communication, you must
configure an IP address and a subnet mask for the interface. If you want the interface to communicate
with devices on other networks (such as remote management stations or TFTP servers), you need to
configure a default route for the router.
For information on additional configuration options for the Management Ethernet interface, see Cisco
Tip
ASR 9000 Series Aggregation Services Router Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.
Prerequisites
To configure the Ethernet Management port for network communications, you must type the interface
network addresses and subnet mask. Consult your network administrator or system planner for this
information.
