Hello,

One question about the Nexus virtual switch configuration. What is the impact 
of the change in the configuration flow (after introducing VMware VDS) on Nexus 
configuration? As per the UI, we are no longer required to specify the IP 
address of the VSM component of Nexus 1000v virtual switch.

I am attaching the screen captures before and after introducing the VMware VDS. 
My question is (might be a stupid one!) whether Nexus vSwitch is going to work 
without specifying the IP address of VMS component, dvSwitch credentials etc.?

Or am I missing something ?

Thanks
-Radhika

Francois,

Good observation, I was only referencing 1GB networks. With 10GB or more, you 
should have no issues.
