Hi,
Use the ip management route command to configure static routes for the Ethernet management port. This command is available in global configuration mode.
The syntax for the ip management route command is:
ip management route ip_address subnet_mask ip_address2
The variables are as follows:
ip_address - The destination network address. Enter the IP address in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 192.168.11.0).
subnet_mask - The IP subnet mask. Enter the mask as either:
A prefix length in classless interdomain routing (CIDR) bit-count notation (for example, /24).
An IP address in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 255.255.255.0).
ip_address2 - The next hop address for the route. Enter the IP address in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 192.168.11.0).
For example, to configure a static route for the Ethernet management port, enter:
(config)# ip management route 172.27.59.0 /24 172.27.56.86
The Ethernet management port allows you to boot the CSS from the Offline DM menu when the boot image resides on a different subnet. Use the gateway address command to configure a default gateway for the Ethernet management port. This command is available in boot mode.
To specify a default gateway for the Ethernet management port for use in Offline DM, enter:
(config)# boot
(config-boot)# gateway address 172.16.57.2
When you have further problems with the configuration please post your loggings from this.
Regards
Peter
