Management Interfaces
You can remotely configure the switch through the management interface (mgmt0). To configure a
connection on the mgmt0 interface, you must configure either the IP version 4 (IPv4) parameters (IP
address, subnet mask, and default gateway) or the IP version 6 (IPv6) parameters so that the switch is
reachable.
This section describes the management interfaces and includes the following topics:

About Management Interfaces

Before you begin to configure the management interface manually, obtain the switch's IPv4 address and
subnet mask, or the IPv6 address.
The management port (mgmt0) is autosensing and operates in full-duplex mode at a speed of
10/100/1000 Mbps. Autosensing supports both the speed and the duplex mode. On a Supervisor-1
module, the default speed is 100 Mbps and the default duplex mode is auto. On a Supervisor-2 module,
the default speed is auto and the default duplex mode is auto.
Note
You need to explicitly configure a default gateway to connect to the switch and send IP packets or add a
route for each subnet.

Configuring Management Interfaces

To configure the mgmt0 Ethernet interface to connect over IPv4, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface mgmt0
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# ip address 10.16.1.2
255.255.255.0
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 5
switch(config-if)# exit
switch(config)#
Step 6
switch(config)# ip default-gateway 1.1.1.4
