Why not make a bridge interface and use that for the management traffic? I make a bridge called loop1 with ARP disabled, add a /32 to it, and use that IP for management and monitoring traffic. This keeps management access and BGP/OSPF router IDs consistent as interface configs change throughout the life cycle. On Dec 26, 2012 6:42 PM, "Scott Lambert" <[email protected]> wrote:
