Default Gigabit Ethernet Configuration
By default, a forwarding VRF is configured for the interface with a special group named Mgmt-intf. This
cannot be changed. This isolates the traffic on the management interface away from the forwarding plane.
Otherwise, the interface can be configured like other Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for most functions.
For example, the default configuration is as follows:
interface GigabitEthernet0
vrf forwarding Mgmt-intf
ip address 200.165.200.225 255.255.255.224
negotiation auto
The controller does not support front-panel networking. You can enter the guest shell commands with in the
controller's terminal, but you cannot configure NAT on the controller. Therefore, this type of networking does
not work. Only management mode (Mgmt-intf VRF) is supported.
Note
Configuring Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces
This section shows how to assign an IP address and interface description to an Ethernet interface on your
controller.
For comprehensive configuration information on Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, see the Configuring LAN
Interfaces chapter of the Cisco IOS Interface and Hardware Component Configuration Guide.
For information on the interface numbering, see the .
For comprehensive configuration information about IP routing and IP routing protocols, see the Configuring
IP Routing Protocol-Independent Feature on cisco.com.
