I checked 2 new N5k and they were configured on Apr 17th and May 11th (according to the logs) with ip 10.1.1.x/24. What is even more strange is that i found commands configuring ethernet interfaces not belonging to this n5k.
Probably someone connected an extension ?

seems like manufacturing may have skipped a "write erase" step.

i'll pass the clue bat along.

Hmmm.  When I looked at the 'show accounting log' on one of mine, I did see
a couple other 10.1.1.x addresses other than the .50 when mine arrived.  I
didn't capture it, but they did have early dates which I believe were before
we received them.  Does seem like some test addresses.  I have the same
10.1.1.1 VRF 0/0 route as well.

Thanks for posting this. I am seeing the same thing and since I know
that I am the only person with access to the switches I was wondering
where those addrs had come from. I am building the lab config and no
one else knows which console TS lines I was using or which ints.

I have two new 5020s running 4.2(1)N1(1) that were unboxed a week and
a half ago and set up in the lab area.  I got a chance to work on them
today and when looking at the config one of them had mgmt0 configured
with 10.1.1.61 and the other had mgmt0 configured with 10.1.1.63. Both
of them had the management vrf default route pointed to 10.1.1.1.

I am the only person working on these switches and I bypassed the
setup config when they were powered up. I did NOT configure them with
these addrs. Nor were they connected to any live network that had
access to any DHCP server. I have no idea where they got this
config. Probably a leftover from mfg testing?

Their mgmt0 ints were not connected to the same VLAN and I didn't see
an ARP storm.

Just be careful about connecting the mgmt0 interfaces to anything prior to
configuring them.  The default IP address of 10.1.1.50 on them (at least
on
the 4.2 5000s) will cause a spectacular ARP storm when they conflict with
each other, like when you attach several unconfigured ones to the same
network.  Several thousand PPS, eventual reloads, etc.  Our installation
guys got ahead of the config guys in our new DC, nice little mess it made.
Not sure why they put a default address on them, hope it's something they
correct in the future.

Yes, but Nexus hardware is the right platform if you don't want to loose
any
packet in your DC ;)

right now the hardware is using a frame format that is not that of

Would that hardware happen be the EARL8? And would there be any chance
that us "old skool" Cat6500 guys get to share to thrill of TRILL (or
similar)? :-)
