Hi I'm just wondering about deployment of 6800IA FEX'es with two 6880-X as core layer.
Not sure regarding few topics: 1) Do 6800IA have local switching or everything is passing back to 6880-X ? I mean how communications between two ports is working on same 6800IA unit if a) two hosts are in same VLAN (Layer2) and b) two hosts are in different VLANs (inter-VLAN routing is required - SVIs are configured on 6880). Nexus 2K FEXes - they don't have local-switching AFAIK, but what about 6800IA. 2) What about 6800IA buffers ? 3) Can I connect switch to 6800IA ? This was limitation of Nexus 2k FEXes. How it's looks here ? 4) How much 6800IA I can have connected to two 6880-X ? 5) Are all features like MPLS, VPLS, QoS will work or 6800IA or there is some limitations ? 6) Any remarks about stability / software bugs of this technology ?
