Management interface

The management interface can be used to gain remote management access to the switch. The management interface is accessible using the mgmt VRF and is separate from the data plane interfaces, which are in the default VRF. Mellanox switches support out-of-band (OOB) dedicated interfaces (e.g. mgmt0, mgmt1) and in-band dedicated interfaces.
