Hello all;
We have some N6240's (rebadged FAS3xxx series) on which the default gateway is set to an IP that routes out the e0M interface.
As such, if the e0M port (wrench port) goes offline, essentially functionality on that controller ceases as communication with AD, NIS, etc. stops working.
We have 10GbE ports on these devices -- we could easily configure the default gateways to use one of those instead, but I am unclear as to what best practice is here. We access management functionality through the IP bound on the e0M port now.
How do the rest of you set things up?
