M4300-8X8F Management VLAN Configuration

I need to change the IP address and VLAN details set under "IPv4 Management VLAN Configuration" under System-> Management Interfaces.

 

Currently in this section it has Route Mode set to ENABLED. This was done because I was using the management VLAN to pass routing information to a cisco layer 3 switch which is now no longer present.

 

My question is if I disable Route Mode in "IPv4 Management VLAN Configuration" will it disable inter vlan routing for the entire switch or only the management VLAN.

 

Normally I would just test this myself but due to work pressures this switch is now in production and I don't have the luxuary of testing.

 

Regards,

 

Ian

    Once this IPv4 Routing is disabled, you will no longer access the management IP of the switch and you can only configure it via console.
