DESCRIPTION
Specifies network settings for the management interface.
The management interface is available on all switch platforms and is designed for management purposes. You can
access the browser-based Configuration utility and command line configuration utility through the management
port. You cannot use the management interface in traffic management VLANs. You can configure only one IP
address on the management interface.
After you make any changes using the management-ip component, issue the following command sequence to save the
changes to the bigip_base.conf file: save sys config.
To configure management-ip firewall rules, see security firewall management-ip-rules.
Note: modify only allows modification of the description field. If you wish to change the IP address of the
management interface, please see the example below.
