When you enable this feature, all management routes (connected, static, and default) are copied to themanagement EIS routing table. Use the management route command to add new management routesto the default and EIS routing tables. Use the show ip management-eis-route command to view theEIS routes.Important Points to Remember• Deleting a management route removes the route from both the EIS routing table and the defaultrouting table.• If the management port is down or route lookup fails in the management EIS routing table, theoutgoing interface is selected based on route lookup from the default routing table.• If a route in the EIS table conflicts with a front-end port route, the front-end port route hasprecedence.• Due to protocol, ARP packets received through the management port create two ARP entries (one forthe lookup in the EIS table and one for the default routing table).Configuring EISEIS is compatible with the following protocols: DNS, FTP, NTP, RADIUS, sFlow, SNMP, SSH, Syslog,TACACS, Telnet, and TFTP.To enable and configure EIS, use the following commands:1. Enter EIS mode.CONFIGURATION modemanagement egress-interface-selection2. Configure which applications uses EIS.EIS modeapplication {all | application-type}NOTE: If you configure SNMP as the management application for EIS and you add a defaultmanagement route, when you perform an SNMP walk and check the debugging logs for thesource and destination IPs, the SNMP agent uses the destination address of incoming SNMPpackets as the source address for outgoing SNMP responses for security.Management InterfacesThe system supports the Management Ethernet interface as well as the standard interface on any port.You can use either method to connect to the system.Configuring Management InterfacesThe dedicated Management interface provides management access to the system.You can configure this interface with Dell Networking OS, but the configuration options on this interfaceare limited. You cannot configure Gateway addresses and IP addresses if it appears in the main routingtable of Dell Networking OS. In addition, proxy ARP is not supported on this interface.To configure a management interface, use the following commands.• Enter the slot and the port (0) to configure a Management interface.CONFIGURATION modeinterface managementethernet interfaceInterfaces 323
