Chapter 4 Configuring General Router Features

Configuring the Management Ethernet Interface

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.

Tip For information on additional configuration options for the Management Ethernet interface, see Cisco IOS XR Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.

Prerequisites

To configure the Ethernet Management port for network communications, you must enter the interface network addresses and subnet mask. Consult your network administrator or system planner for this information.
