Has anyone seen a document from Cisco that shows where various processes running on various Nexus switches actually run from?
For example on a 9508 the nxapi runs in a Linux VM and in order to secure it you have to drop into the VM and use iptables. I am trying to figure out where the BGP process lives (for lack of a better word). Does it run on the line cards? In the control plane? Both? Does it vary depending on which model and which line cards? The reason I am asking is because I've noticed that no matter what I do I cannot seem to "close" the BGP port by using CoPP. It always shows up as being open when doing a port scan against the system using NMAP. I know that the switch should not establish a connection with random hosts but I really am getting hung up on it being 'scannable'/visible at all. _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
