Hello.

In the AVD campus fabric example is exmplained how to disable generation of oob interfaces on leafs.

In Campus Networks, having a dedicated out-of-band management network in each IDF is uncommon. Therefore, you can easily disable configuring the Management0 interface and the management VRF by adding these variables to the DC1_LEAFS.yml group_vars.

mgmt_gateway: null
mgmt_interface: null
mgmt_interface_vrf: default

Should this really work?
I have tested it but the interface Management1is still created including an IP?

### group_vars/DC1_LEAFS.yml

type: leaf     # Must be leaf
mgmt_gateway: null
mgmt_interface: null
mgmt_interface_vrf: default

thank you

Try to define your leaf by inband_mgmt_vlan instead of mgmt_interfaces :

mgmt_interface: Vlan100 << specify your inband mgmt interface
mgmt_interface_vrf: default

leaf:
defaults:
platform: cEOSLab
inband_mgmt_vlan: 100
inband_mgmt_gateway: 10.x.x.x
