Hi All,
I would like to check with you all on the below design , suggestions would be great help
connectivity : Tacacse server---------> Router -----------> Nexus 5K--------> 3850 catalyst switch
design- tacacs server reachable via Router ,
Router Gi/0 connected to Nexus 5K eth1/1 ( L3 port , and part of Management VRF)
nexus 5K management VRF configured
Nexus 5K access port Eth1/2 ( vlan2, also configued under vrf Mgmt) connected to Access port vlan 2 at 3850 Gi 1/0/48
.SO here I have question , the Nexus connected port Ethernet 1/2 to catalyst 3850 ( configured as access port ) should also call under VRF Mgmt , or it need to keep only access port
interface Ethernet1/2
des Mgmt_3850 sw Gi 1/0/48
vrf member MGMT
switch mode access
switchport access vlan 2
------or ---------
interface Ethernet1/2
des Mgmt_3850 sw Gi 1/0/48
switch mode access
switchport access vlan 2

got a solution - no need configure vrf member MGMT on the nexus ports ,3850 connected switches.

Since you are using a different port (e1/2)than the actual management (mgmt0) than there is no need to put that port in a vrf.
