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.
