What you can do is modify your rc file so that the other networks that are non-production would be defined first and set appropriate routes. Then leave defining e0M for after the others are defined. Also, depending on your ONTAP version, there are the options to limit/prevent protocol or snapmirror traffic over certain interfaces "options interface.xxxx.blocked".

Hi all
I have two pairs of 3210s. The default gateway of the systems are via the management interface IP range, so that they are reachable remotely on the e0M interfaces.
However, this is causing snapmirror replication to use those interfaces as well, which is undesirable from a speed/data path persepctive.
I have considered putting e0M into its own ipspace, but then how would I manipulate its routing table as it would not be in a vfiler.
Any other ideas about having e0M reachable from anywhere, but still use a different vif as the default gateway for generic traffic on the system? Chris _______________________________________________ Toasters mailing list Toasters@teaparty.net http://www.teaparty.net/mailman/listinfo/toasters
