Note
If the management 10/100/1000 Ethernet port (mgmt0) interface of the Cisco MDS 9700 Series switches
has a preconfigured “/0” IPv6 address that cannot be removed, use the write erase boot command to
clear the complete configuration of the device and reload the device using the reload command. Perform
this process before commissioning the device into production as this process is disruptive to user traffic
if it is applied to the active supervisor of a system. Ensure an active console connection to the supervisor
as this process will remove the IPv4 address of the mgmt0 interface.
