Mgmt Auth Traffic on external VLAN

I have connected my managment interface on a 6900 v10.1 box to a management network, and I have configured Active Directory authentication for management access. I was doing some testing and I disconnected the external VLAN from the network, and suddenly I could not authenticate against the management GUI any more. This tells me that the LTM management auth traffic is using the external VLAN. This should not be - how can I force managment auth traffic through the management route interface?

    OK, that definitely clears it up. And thanks for nugget 1. It seems there are too many pitfalls moving away from our current config for me to feel comfortable. Since it is not uncommon to manage using the external VLAN, I think I will continue using it.

     

     

    Thanks again for your feedback.
