About the mgmt0 Interface
The mgmt0 interface on Cisco NX-OS devices provides out-of-band management, which enables you to
manage the device by its IPv4 or IPv6 address. The mgmt0 interface uses 10/100/1000 Ethernet.
Note
Before you begin to configure the management interface manually, obtain the switch's IP address and
subnet mask. Also make sure that the console cable is connected to the console port.
Configuring the Management Interface
To configure the management (mgmt0) Ethernet interface to connect over IP, perform this task:
Command
Step 1
switch# configure terminal
Step 2
switch(config)# interface mgmt 0
Step 3
switch(config-if)# ip address
ipv4-address[/length]
switch(config-if)# ip address
ipv4-address [subnet-mask]
switch(config-if)# ipv6 address
ipv6-address[/length]
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 5
switch(config-if)# exit
Step 6
switch(config)# vrf context
management
Step 7
switch(config-vrf)# ip route
ipv4-prefix[/length]
ipv4-nexthop-address
switch(config-vrf)# ipv6 route
ipv6-prefix[/length]
ipv6-nexthop-address
Step 8
switch(config-vrf)# exit
Step 9
switch# copy running-config
startup-config
In some cases, a switch interface might be administratively shut down. You can check the status of an
interface at any time by using the show interface mgmt 0 command.
Displaying Management Interface Configuration
To display the management interface configuration, use the show interface mgmt 0 command.
switch# show interface mgmt0
mgmt0 is up
