Change Management Instance Attributes

Use this task to change the IP address, VLAN, VRF, or default gateway for a Management Instance while you actively manage the switch over the same instance.

Important

Change the parameters in the following order:

VLAN or VRF
ports-tagged, ports-untagged-, or I-SID
IP address or default gateway

About this task

You cannot change parameters for more than one Management Instance operation at a time.

Procedure

Enter Global Configuration mode:

enable

configure terminal
Enter the configuration mode for the Management Instance:

mgmt {clip | oob | vlan}
Use one of the following Management Instances interfaces to configure the new values:
1. Configure new Management Instance VLAN parameters:
  
  convert [vlan <1-4059>] [i-sid <1-16777215>] [ports-tagged {slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...]}] [ports-untagged{slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...]}] [ip {<A.B.C.D/X>|<A.B.C.D> <A.B.C.D>}] [gateway <A.B.C.D>] [rollback <0-3600>]
  
  Important
  
  After you configure the new values, the existing Management Instance VLAN is deleted and connectivity to the switch can be lost. You must reconnect to the switch before you can issue the mgmt convert-commit command.
2. Configure new Management Instance OOB parameters:
  
  convert [ip {<A.B.C.D/X>|<A.B.C.D> <A.B.C.D>}] [gateway <A.B.C.D>] [rollback <0-3600>]
3. Configure new Management Instance CLIP parameters:
  
  convert [vrf WORD <1-16>] [ip {<A.B.C.D/X>|<A.B.C.D> <A.B.C.D>}] [rollback <0-3600>]
  
  Note
  
  If the VRF does not exist before you issue the convert command, the VRF is automatically created in the background. For this VRF to function properly, you must configure either SPBM Layer 3 VSN or IP interfaces and routing protocols.
Log on to Global Configuration mode to commit the parameter changes:

mgmt convert-commit

Note
Commit the change within 120 seconds (default) of issuing the mgmt convert-commit command. Otherwise, the configuration changes automatically roll back to the previous configuration.

Variable Definitions

The following table defines parameters for the convert command.


Variable	Value
`<A.B.C.D A.B.C.D \| A.B.C.D/X>`	Specifies the IP address and subnet mask. This parameter applies to the following Management Instance interface types: CLIP OOB VLAN
`<A.B.C.D>`	Specifies the gateway IP address. This parameter applies to the following Management Instance interface types: OOB VLAN
`<1-16777215>`	Specifies the service instance identifier (I-SID). This parameter applies to the Management Instance VLAN interface type. Note: You can specify the I-SID for a switch not configured as a DvR Leaf node.
`{slot/port[/sub-port][-slot/port[/sub-port]][,...]}`	Identifies the slot and port in one of the following formats: a single slot and port (slot/port), a range of slots and ports (slot/port-slot/port), or a series of slots and ports (slot/port,slot/port,slot/port). If the platform supports channelization and the port is channelized, you must also specify the sub-port in the format slot/port/sub-port.
`<0-3600>`	Specifies the time in seconds between when the command is issued and when the command changes automatically roll back to the previous configuration. The default is 120 seconds. To disable the rollback, enter 0.
`<2-4059>`	Specifies the VLAN ID in the range of 2 to 4059. VLAN ID 1 is the default VLAN and you cannot create or delete VLAN ID 1. By default, the system reserves VLAN IDs 4060 to 4094 for internal use. On switches that support the vrf-scaling and spbm-config-mode boot configuration flags, if you enable these flags, the system also reserves VLAN IDs 3500 to 3998. This parameter applies to the Management Instance VLAN interface type only.
`WORD<0-16>`	Specifies the vrf name. This parameter applies to the Management Instance CLIP interface type only.
