[c-nsp] 4900M 10/100/1000 management interfaces

[Jeff Fitzwater]

The interface is Fa1 and has a fixed config name of mgmtVrf
What they did was set up a VRF interface so that you can have an  
isolated management port that resides in a separate routing domain.     
One problem i found is that you need the latest code that supports the  
new interface  (12.2-46SG).    I had to load it on the flash card and  
then boot from flash.

The other trick is the  default route must be entered as follows...


ip route vrf mgmtVrf 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 n.n.n.n

Also... ntp server vrf mgmtVrf
