Nexus 5548 mgmt 0 interface

[Evan Ray]

I'm new to the Nexus line and I was just wondering do I need to be cautious about connecting the mgmt 0 interface to a production network?  As far as spanning-tree or changing the priority of the root bridge?  I know bringing on a new switch you always want to be cautious of the configuration, along with what the switch will be used for.

I don't think it would cause a problem, especially if the port is configured for its own VLAN, but I just wanted to be sure. 

Cheers,

No, you don't need to worry about spanning-tree on the mgmt0 port.  It is just like a host port and it is in its own vrf.
