API Guide

1. Enter the management VRF instance.
CONFIGURATION
ip vrf management
2. Remove the IPv4 address associated with the interface.
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
no ip address
3. Remove the IPv6 address associated with the interface.
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION
no ipv6 address
4. Assign the management interface back to the default VRF instance.
CONFIGURATION VRF
no interface management
Deleting a non-default VRF instance
Before deleting a non-default VRF instance, ensure all the dependencies and associations corresponding to that VRF instance
are first deleted or disabled. The following procedure describes how to delete a non-default VRF instance:
After deleting all dependencies, you can delete the non-default VRF instances that you have created.
● Delete a non-default VRF instance using the following command:
CONFIGURATION
no ip vrf vrf-name
NOTE: You cannot delete the default VRF instance.
Configure a static route for a non-default VRF instance
● Configure a static route in a non-default VRF instance. Static routes contain IP addresses of the next-hop neighbors that are
reachable through the non-default VRF. These IP addresses could also belong to the interfaces that are part of the non-
default VRF instance.
CONFIGURATION
ip route vrf vrf-name ip-address mask next-hop-ip-address or ipv6 route vrf vrf-name ipv6-
address prefix-length next-hp[=ipv6–address
For example: ip route vrf red 10.1.1.0/24 20.1.1.6 or ipv6 route vrf red 2::/64 3::1
● Configure the route to direct traffic to a front-panel port in case of a non-default VRF instance.
CONFIGURATION
ip route ip-address-mask ethernet interface-type or ipv6 route ipv6–address-mask ethernet
interface-type
For example: ip route 10.1.1.0/24 ethernet 1/1/1 or ipv6 route 2::/64 ethernet 1/1/1. Where
ethernet 1/1/1 is part of the non-default VRF.
Configuring static entry in IPv6 neighbor
● Configure a static entry in the IPv6 neighbor discovery.
CONFIGURATION
ipv6 neighbor vrf vrf–test 1::1 ethernet 1/1/1 xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
