Chassis Management Interface

The chassis management interface is used for management of the FXOS Chassis by SSH or chassis manager. This interface appears at the top of the Interfaces tab as MGMT, and you can only enable or disable this interface on the Interfaces tab. This interface is separate from the mgmt-type interface that you assign to the logical devices for application management.

To configure parameters for this interface, you must configure them from the CLI. To view information about this interface in the FXOS CLI, connect to local management and show the management port:

Firepower # connect local-mgmt

Firepower(local-mgmt) # show mgmt-port

Note that the chassis management interface remains up even if the physical cable or SFP module are unplugged, or if the mgmt-port shut command is performed.

Note

The chassis management interface does not support jumbo frames.
