[AusNOG] Management VRF

[Ben Hohnke]

Hi Noggers,

I've been doing a little research around management VRF's, mainly for
splitting my company's network management traffic into it's own VRF, to
shield it from any potential routing issues.
I know some of our kit, such as the Cisco ASR 1001 and cat4948's have
dedicated management ethernet interfaces locked in a management VRF.

At this stage I see two common options:
Management traffic in a VRF with RFC1918 addressing, and
Management traffic in the global routing table, with customer traffic, with
BGP etc in a VRF (i.e, turn it all "inside out")

I'm curious to see others thoughts on this, and what implementations you've
all put in place out there?

Thanks,

Ben
