Displaying the management VRF information
• The deletion or modification of the VRF will fail if the specified VRF is currently configured as
the management VRF. Attempting to do so causes the system to return the following error
message.
Brocade(config)# no vrf mvrf
Error - Cannot modify/delete a VRF which is configured as management-vrf
Configuring Management interface under a user defined VRF
You can add the management interface to a VRF instance of your choice. Previously the
management interface was only be a member of a default-vrf in the system and this cannot be
changed.
Configuration steps
1. Define a VRF. Please refer to the NetIron configuration guide for details on how to define a VRF.
Following is an example.
Brocade(config)# vrf mgmt
Brocade(config)# rd 1:1
Brocade(config)# address-family ipv4
Brocade(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.25.120.1
Brocade(config)# exit-address-family
exit-vrf
You have now created a VRF named 'mgmt'.
2. Go to the management interface and use the following command to make the management
interface part of the mgmt VRF.
Brocade(config-if-mgmt-1)# vrf forwarding mgmt
You can use the no vrf forwarding xxx command to place the management interface under
default-vrf.
NOTE
By default, the management interface will be in the default-vrf.
Syntax: vrf forwarding
forwarding - enables forwarding on the specified (current) interface
NOTE
You must execute these commands at the interface configuration level, for example,
Brocade(config-if-mgmt-1)#
Displaying the management VRF information
