Nokia SR OS Management Port Configuration with Default Route

Dec 12, 2024

I am running through some configuration testing of Nokia equipment and need to store some notes on basic configuration. Will update this with more text later.

On a 7750 SR-1x-48D running SR-OS 24.10.R1 using model driven CLI issue the following commands to configure a static address on the management ethernet port:

bof exclusive
router "management"
interface "management"
cpm active
ipv4 <Address> prefix-length <#>
exit
exit
exit
static routes
route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop <Gateway>

You can then view the configured IP address with:

A:admin@<hostname># show router interface A/1

If you want to test connectivity, make sure you do it from the “management” instance:

A:admin@<hostname># ping 1.1.1.1 router-instance management     

PING 1.1.1.1 56 data bytes

64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=56 time=3.07ms.

64 bytes from 1.1.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=56 time=3.11ms.

^C
