Management Source IP Address

NVIDIA Docs Hub NVIDIA Networking Networking Software Switch Software NVIDIA Onyx User Manual v3.10.4100 LTS Management Source IP Address

ntp source-interface

In many cases network operators prefer to have a single IP address for the switch that is used for management operations like switch configuration, receiving remote log files, ping, and so forth. That IP address is needed for building firewall rules so that network switches can be easily identified. It is also required for identifying management traffic and exact management target in network logs.

The following protocols are supported by the feature:

FTP
TFTP
NTP
Syslog
TACACS
SSH, SSHD, SCP
Ping
Traceroute
SNMP
