ASR-9K (vrf and management interface)

[sendalot7]

I see that regular IOS & NX-OS & ASR(IOS-XE) have different ways of setting out-of-band management interface.

Below is brief config.

I can ping my immediate default gw but can't ping anything outside of my vlan/subnet.

Help appreciated, thanks!

This is how I have mine setup:

vrf MGMT
description Management
address-family ipv4 unicast
import route-target
200:200
!
export route-target
200:200
!
interface MgmtEth0/RSP0/CPU0/0
description MGMT
vrf MGMT
ipv4 address 10.1.2.111 255.255.255.0
load-interval 30
!
router static
vrf MGMT
address-family ipv4 unicast
0.0.0.0/0 10.1.2.1

I just tested and this works.

Hi @sendalot7 ,

The mgmt interface is in the global and the default route in the global is wrong (0.0.0.0/8 instead of 0.0.0.0/0), hence it is not working. The best thing would be to put the mgmt interface in the mgmt vrf. You already have the proper default static route in vrf mgmt.

interface MgmtEth0/RSP0/CPU0/0

vrf mgmt

ipv4 address 10.7.0.38 255.255.255.0
