Common Ethernet Management Tasks
SYSLOG Server
To specify the Management Ethernet interface as the source IP or IPv6 address for logging purposes,
enter the logging host <ip-address> vrf Mgmt-intf command.
The following CLI provides an example of this procedure.
Router(config)# logging host <ip-address> vrf Mgmt-intf
SNMP-Related Services
To specify the Management Ethernet interface as the source of all SNMP trap messages, enter the
snmp-server source-interface traps gigabitEthernet 0 command.
The following CLI provides an example of this procedure:
Router(config)# snmp-server source-interface traps gigabitEthernet 0
Domain Name Assignment
The IP domain name assignment for the Management Ethernet interface is done through the VRF.
To define the default domain name as the Management Ethernet VRF interface, enter the ip
domain-name vrf Mgmt-intf domain command.
Router(config)# ip domain-name vrf Mgmt-intf cisco.com
DNS service
To specify the Management Ethernet interface VRF as a name server, enter the ip name-server vrf
Mgmt-intf IPv4-or-IPv6-address command.
Router(config)# ip name-server vrf Mgmt-intf IPv4-or-IPv6-address
RADIUS or TACACS+ Server
To group the Management VRF as part of a AAA server group, enter the ip vrf forward Mgmt-intf
command when configuring the AAA server group.
The same concept is true for configuring a TACACS+ server group. To group the Management VRF as
part of a TACACS+ server group, enter the ip vrf forwarding Mgmt-intf command when configuring
the TACACS+ server group.
RADIUS Server Group Configuration
Router(config)# aaa group server radius hello
Router(config-sg-radius)# ip vrf forwarding Mgmt-intf
TACACS+ Server Group Example
outer(config)# aaa group server tacacs+ hello
Router(config-sg-tacacs+)# ip vrf forwarding Mgmt-intf
