Management Port Configuration on Aseries 5500 IRF stack

Greetings,

 

I'm a long time server guy thrown in the networking muck as it is at least at my company. We're gradually moving off dreaded Dell switching to Aseries. We have a new 7500 core IRF (3 7500's).

 

I'm building up a two switch IRF of 5500 for an isolated DMZ network. I want to be able to manage the DMZ switches from our internal network while not exposing the DMZ ports to the internal network. So connect each management port on the 5500's to a Gig port on the core IRF.

 

I struggling with getting internal traffic to route to the management ports on the DMZ switches. I'm able to the ping the management port while logged on to the core but not from a workstation.

 

core port config:

 

interface GigabitEthernet1/4/0/47
 port link-mode bridge
 description lyndmzs01 mgt interface
 port link-type trunk
 undo port trunk permit vlan 1
 port trunk permit vlan 105
 port trunk pvid vlan 105

 

dmz management port config:

 

interface M-GigabitEthernet0/0/0
 description To core - mgt interface IP VLAN 105
 ip address 10.105.17.253 255.255.0.0

 

Yes that is a class B network.. don't ask.

 

Any help is appreciated!

 

Ron

Sounds like the 5500 switches do not have a default gateway set for their management ports.

Can you give me the syntax for setting that up?
