Segmented Management Instance Overview

The Segmented Management Instance provides support for management interfaces that transmit and receive packets directly to and from the system native Linux IP stack. The management interfaces do not route packets through the VOSS networking IP stack.

Management Applications

The following management applications use the Segmented Management Instance directly to transmit or receive packets with segmented management interfaces and addresses.

Note:

The VSP 8600 Series only supports Ping, Traceroute, and NTPv4.
