Interesting. I guess the N7K might yet replace the C6K. If Cisco would ship
an EARL8 based Sup for the 6500 running NX-OS, I'd be happy...

There is a longterm roadmap on 6k for an E8 based sup, but that would be an IOS system.


Question about the N7K: are VLANs global to the switch,

No, they are interface local.

 like the C6K, or can
they be configured to be local to a switchport? I'd like to know if L3
switchports can have the same subinterfaces or not.

You can have an arbitrary # of subinterfaces terminating the same vlan ID, along with an SVI & switchports with that same VLAN ID, and route between them all.


Hope that helps,
Tim
