The video shows different interface options available, internal as well as external, to gain access to CIMC on Cisco UCS-E. The demonstration will be on EN120E and E140D UCS-E modules in ISR G2. The configuration will be compared to ISR 4K with their differences noted. We will then go through CIMC web interface and complete the remaining configuration.
 
Part 1 of this video covers CIMC interface configuration on EN120E

I was configuring the CIMC IP. Below is the config I did for CIMC Access , method using the E-Series Server's ( UCS-E140S-M2/K9) Internal NIC GE1 and routers UCSE 1/0/1 Interface.

Physical Connectivity I did is connected a Cable to Routers GE0 Interface with a PC where I assigned a same block IP ( 10.7.29.210 ). From PC ( 10.7.29.210 ).

I can Ping G00/0/0 but not the CIMC IP ( 10.7.29.202 ). Also from Router I can Ping G0/0/0 IP but not CIMC IP. I also added "sh ip interface brief" , “ sh platform” command output in case it helps.

Can you advise what is wrong I am doing here ?

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/0
ip address 10.7.29.201 255.255.255.0
negotiation auto

interface ucse1/0/1
ip unnumbered GigabitEthernet0/0/0
no negotiation auto
switchport mode trunk

ucse subslot 1/0
imc access-port shared-lom console
imc ip address 10.7.29.202 255.255.255.0 default-gateway 10.7.29.201

ip route 10.7.29.202 255.255.255.255 ucse1/0/1

Command Output
