Migrate an IP Address to a Segmented Management Instance

Note

This procedure is not applicable for VOSS release 8.1.60 or later. You can only configure the migrate to management for a pre-existing VLAN or loopback management interface before you upgrade to this release.

This procedure does not apply to VSP 8600 Series.

Use this procedure to designate an existing VLAN or loopback IP address as a Segmented Management Instance. This action moves the IP interface from the VOSS routing stack to the management stack to use with management applications.

Important

Choose a VLAN that does not have an IP interface on it. The upgrade process removes the IP configuration and network connectivity will be impacted.

About this task

You cannot migrate interfaces used for routing purposes, for example, where you configure Layer 3 routing protocols.

This command does not apply to the OOB or mgmtEthernet interface. Releases that support this migration procedure automatically move the IP address on the mgmtEthernet interface from the routing stack to the Segmented Management Instance.

Procedure

In the navigation pane, expand Configuration > Edit.
Select Mgmt Instance.
Select Mgmt.
Select the Migrate tab.
Select Insert.
Select the instance type, either clip or vlan.
Specify the existing VLAN or loopback ID.
Select Insert.
