Additional OOB management configuration options

The following features are introduced with FastIron 8.0.50.

In this section:

  1. Configuring an IPv6 Default Gateway to Support OOB Management
    An IPv6 default gateway can be configured globally as well as on a management VLAN, with the latter configuration supporting multiple gateways. Both options are illustrated.
  2. Controlling traffic on management ports in a VLAN or VRF
    Prior to FastIron 8.0.50, management traffic on both in-band and out-of-band (OOB) management interfaces depended on membership in the management VLAN or VRF. Now you can exclude these interfaces for management traffic, which includes IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA) traffic on a Layer 2 image, and IPv6 RA, HTTP, NTP, SSH, and Telnet traffic on a Layer 3 image.
  3. Configuring the OOB management port to be a member of a management VLAN
    This task configures the out-of-band (OOB) management port to be member of a user-specified (nondefault) VLAN.
