Is Cisco Nexus 5596UP support vlan base Policing and traffic shaping on code NX OS version: 5.1(3)N1(1)

Is Cisco Nexus 5596UP support vlan base Policing and traffic shaping on code NX OS version: 5.1(3)N1(1)
where i couldn't see any police command under the policy map

I have tested this issue on another 5548UP with L3 running the same NX-OS version and get the same problem. Show CDP from the switch is not discovering devices, but the neightbors can see the 5K in question. Reboot sometimes will fix it, but not always. I suspect a problem with the software since that doesn't happen in NX-OS 5.2. The one I am using is
Software
BIOS:      version 3.6.0
loader:    version N/A
kickstart: version 5.1(3)N2(1)
system:    version 5.1(3)N2(1)

Cisco Nexus 5548UP support SFP-10G-LRM ?

Hi all, I have a question about Cisco Nexus 5548UP. Is Cisco Nexus 5548UP support SFP-10G-LRM ? Because in CCW, i can't configure the SFP-10G-LRM. There is only SFP-10G-LR, SR, and the others, but there's no LRM. Pelase help me to answer this question. Thanks a lot

The LRM is s special case transceiver which supports 10 Gbps over older FDDI grade multimode fiber when used with a mode conditioning patch cord. It is not supported on the Nexus 5548UP.
The SFP-10G-LR is used with single mode fiber for spans up to 10 km in length. It is supported on the 5548UP (and most every platform of Cisco's that takes SFPs).
Please see the product data sheet here.

Cisco LAN Management Solution is required to support Cisco Nexus 5548P and 5596UP switches?

Hi,
Could someone help to know what Cisco LAN Management Solution is required to support Cisco Nexus 5548P switches and Cisco Nexus 5596UP switches?
These new Cisco switches are being implementing on customer network and he ask us that he requires these equipments be supported on a LMS solution (customer currently is using LMS 3.2.1)
Can someone help?
Thanks in advanced,
guruiz

Some very limited Nexus support is present in LMS 3.2.1 - see the supported device table here.
To get more complete support, including the 5596UP, they need to upgrade to LMS 4.x (e.g. LMS 4.2.2 is the latest and is sold under the Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2 umbrella). The major upgrade from 3.x to 4.x requires purchasing an upgrade license.
Some functions (namely User Tracking ) will not be available on the 5k due to non-support of the requisite MIB on the device. I believe LMS still doesn't let you do VLAN management on 5k's - you need to use DCNM for that if you want to do it from a GUI.
See the table here for LMS 4.2 device support.

Cisco nexus 6001 not a supported device on cisco prime infrastructure 2.1?

I have installed Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.2 and Prime Infrastructure still doesn't seem to support the Nexus 6001 platform? Can someone tell me if Cisco Prime Infrastructure will ever support the Cisco Nexus 6001 platform or is there any plans to support it in any future device packs?

The Nexus 6001 isn't currently supported in PI 2.1. There's no workaround except to wait for a device or product update that adds support. Right now I know the 9000 series is on the 2.2 roadmap but I haven't seen any reference to the 6001 and PI.
Interestingly, Prime LMS does support both the 6001 and 6004. Reference.

Cisco Nexus and 10GbE Autonegotiation not supported?

Hi,
I'm currently reading through the Interfaces Config Guide for Nexus 5600 NX-OS 7.x and have found the following statement:
Autonegotiation configuration is not applicable on 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports. When autonegotiation is
configured on a 10-Gigabit port the following error message is displayed:
ERROR: Ethernet1/40: Configuration does not match the port capability
Is it true that autonegotiation is not supported for 10GbE Interfaces on Cisco Nexus? I thought autonegotation was supported by 10GbE?! So would it be best practice so set a fixed speed on all Interfaces (servers, other switches) connected to the 10GbE ports on the Nexus switches?
Thanks,
Michael

Hi Bilal,
thanks. Yes, I know that 10GbE can run over both media types, the problem here is that the documentation starts with stating that auto negotiation is not supported for 10GbE in beneral but later references only 10-GBASE-T, so I was not sure what is true - whether auto-negotiation only not works with copper or with all ports.
But I guess then it is true for all 10GbE ports, no matter what media-type. It's somewhat stange however, since I have read that auto-negotiation is generally supported for 10GbE (according to Wikipedia, at least). Maybe only Cisco doesn't supported auto-negotiation for 10GbE.
Thank you again,
Michael

Highest supported Brocade DCX firmware version to be interoperable with Cisco Nexus 5020

A Cisco Nexus 5020 (FCoE) switch is connected to Brocade DCX-B switch.
5020 is at latest firmware level of 5.0.2.N2.1
Brocade is at firmware level of 6.2.1b
If we need to upgrade brocade firmware, what is the maximum revision we can go to? Is there some documentation available for interoperability between the code levels of the two hardwares?

Just to further clarify, we have 4 5548UP switches in the same management vlan. 2 switches are in one location lets say location A and they are CFS peers and are working fine.
These two switches which are having problem are in location B. All the switches are in the same vlan. Essentially the all CFS multicast messages will be seen by all 5548 switches as they are in the same vlan. I am assuming that this might not create any problems as we specify the peers in the respective configurations. Or do we have to change the CFSoIPv4 multicast addresses in location B or may be configure a different region.

Right now there is only a few features that are not supported on N1Kv on Hyper-V
They are VXLAN and QOS Fair Weighted Queuing. We are currently demoing VXLAN functionality at Microsoft TechEd Conference this week in New Orleans. So VXLAN support should be coming soon. I can't give you a specific timeline.
For Fair Weighted Queuing I'm not sure. In the VMware world we take advantage of NETIOC infrastructure. In the MS world they do not have a NETIOC infrastructure that we can use to create a similar feature.
Code base parity (as in VMware and Hyper-V VSMs running NXOS 5.x) will happen with the next major N1KV release for ESX.
Let me know if that doesn't answer your question.
thanks

Macvtap over Cisco Nexus ...

Hi everybody!
First all my apologizes for my english language!
I have a standard server running linux (centos 6.5) with kvm to install and configure virtual machines. I tried to use macvtap driver to setup the virutal network interfaces. I not use ucs Cisco servers or Nexus 1000v switches!
The physical ethernet is connected to Cisco Nexus 2000 (with a Cisco Nexus 5548up). To default a standard switch not working with the macvtap configuration because the swith to be support "reflective relay" or "hair pinning" propierties for to this works.
Is possible configure the Cisco Nexus 5548up/2000 to this works? Capabilities how to Adapter-FEX, veheternet, VM-FEX o similars can help me?
Know you some docs over this?
Thank you all.

Hi Tony,
You do not have to worry about PFC. Priority-Flow-Control is something which is related to FCOE or DCBX protocol. With iSCSI as this is a TCP traffic, you have to make sure that you have a proper QOS for the IP Subnet or VLAN that has your iSCSI hosts transmitting the data. As iSCSI rides over TCP this is the major issue that I have seen related to the valid QOS config for the traffic. There is not best practice for it but you have make sure that you added it to a class other than BE or Scavanger class.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,

VSM and Cisco nexus 1000v

Hi,
We are planning to install Cisco Nexus 1000v in our environment. Before we want to install we want to explore little bit about Cisco Nexus 1000v
• I know there is 2 elements for Cisco 1k, VEM and VSM. Does VSM is required? Can we configure VEM individually?
• How does Nexus 1k integrated with vCenter. Can we do all Nexus 1000v configuration from vCenter without going to VEM or VSM?
• In term of alarming and reporting, does we need to get SNMP trap and get from individual VEM or can be use VSM to do that. OR can we get Cisco Nexus 1000v alarming and reporting form VMware vCenter.
• Apart from using Nexus 1010 can what’s the recommended hosting location for VSM, (same Host as VEM, different VM, and different physical server)
Foyez Ahammed

Hi Foyez,
Here is a brief on the Nexus1000v and I'll answer some of your questions in that:
The Nexus1000v is a Virtual Distributed Switch (software based) from Cisco which integrated with the vSphere environment to provide uniform networking across your vmware environment for the host as well as the VMs. There are two components to the N1K infrastructure 1) VSM 2) VEM.
VSM - Virtual supervisor module is the one which controls the entire N1K setup and is from where the configuration is done for the VEM modules, interfaces, security, monitoring etc. VSM is the one which interacts with the VC.
VEM - Virtual ethernet module are simply the module or virtual linecards which provide the connectivity option or virtual ports for the VMs and other virtaul interfaces. Each ESX host today can only have one VEM. These VEMs recieve their configuration / programing from the VSM.
If you are aware of any other switching products from Cisco like the Cat 6k switches, the n1k behaves the same way but in a software / virtual environment. Where the VSM are equal of a SUPs and the VEM are similar to the line cards. The control and the packet VLANs in the n1k provide the same kind of AIPC and Inband connectivity as the 6k backplane would for the communication between the modules and the SUP (VSM in this case).
*The n1k configuration is done only from the VSM and is visible in the VC.However the port-profiles created from the VSM are pushed from the VSM to the VC and have to be assigned to the virtual / physical ports from the VC.
*You can run the VSM either on the Nexus1010 as a Virtual service blade (VSB) or as a normal VM on any of the ESX/ESXi server. The VSM and the VEM on the same server are fully supported.
You can refer the following deployment guide for some more details: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps9441/ps9902/guide_c07-556626.html

Nexus 5596UP igmp querier

Hi all,
Problem:
I want to implement "ip igmp snopping querier xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" on a Test-Nexus 5596UP.
Question:
I can't see/implement the command "ig igmp snooping querier ....." on my nexus.
Test-nexus(config-vlan)# ip igmp snooping ?
*** No matching command found in current mode, matching in (config) mode ***
<CR>
event-history Configure event-history buffers
link-local-groups-suppression Configures Global link-local groups suppression
mrouter Configures static multicast router interface
report-suppression Configures Global IGMPv1/IGMPv2 Report Suppression
v3-report-suppression Configures Global IGMPv3 Report Suppression and Proxy Reporting
Test-nexus(config-vlan)#
Do I need to enable any features or install a different license?
Nexus 5500 Multicast Config Guide 6.x:
IGMP Snooping Querier
When PIM is not enabled on an interface because the multicast traffic does not need to be routed, you must configure an IGMP snooping querier to send membership queries. You define the querier in a VLAN that contains multicast sources and receivers but no other active querier.
When an IGMP snooping querier is enabled, it sends out periodic IGMP queries that trigger IGMP report messages from hosts that want to receive IP multicast traffic. IGMP snooping listens to these IGMP reports to establish appropriate forwarding
Example:
switch(config-vlan)# ip igmp snooping querier 172.20.52.106
My Test Nexus 5596UP:
kickstart: version 6.0(2)N2(3)

Bernhard,
Here you go :-)
"ip igmp snooping" is no longer available under vlan mode. Please reconfigure under "vlan configuration <vlan-id>"
example:
Nexus5596(config)# vlan configuration 101 ( 101 is the vlan id)
Nexus5596(config-vlan-config))#ip igmp snooping querier 1.1.1.1 >>> here is the way to configure.
HTH
