Hi Cheriyan,
Could you please be more specific on what exactly are you trying to do?
Are you trying to apply the access list on the cmp interface ? and you are not able to do?
If yes then whats the sw version running on nexus? If you are on 4.2 version then you need to telnet to CMP and configure the acl over there.
Example :
Switch CMP Configuration Example:
telnet server enable
# ssh server is enabled by default
ip access-list cmp-telnet-ssh-permit
permit tcp 172.17.0.0/16 range 0 65535 0.0.0.0/0 range 22 23
permit tcp 172.20.0.0/16 range 0 65535 0.0.0.0/0 range 22 23
interface cmp-mgmt
ip address 192.168.201.2 255.255.255.0
ip access-group cmp-telnet-ssh-permit in
Regards
Inayath
