Re: [c-nsp] Nexus 7000 and 6.x

I've had mix luck with 6.0 - some really stable (fabricpath / ipv6 / ospf ) on F2 and some really bad. 5.2.4 or better is whats safest if possible as its a long running train. 6.1 will be out shortly to support the new SUPs and M2 line cards. Sent from my iPad On Jun 7, 2012, at 9:06 AM, "N.

Immediate recommendation to move to 5.2.3a or 5.2.4 - lots of catastrophic fun to be had on 5.2.1 / 5.2.2 ... Contact your account team for more details but I'm pretty sure one of the cases was shared on list a few months back. Ryan On Mon, Mar 26, 2012 at 11:54 AM, Jeffrey G. Fitzwater wrote: >

It "depends" - largely on the type of Multicast you're rolling out. I had mixed results with 3560's running IP Base versus IP Services for SSM/AutoRP roll out. Depending on your requirements you could maybe get IP Base to work but best results were with IP Services. Ryan On Wed, Jun 10, 2009 at

The other con to deploying N2K/N5K today is that they don't yet support port channeling of 1G connections down to the hosts which is sometimes common for Oracle RAC clusters or VMware ESX environments. This will be resolved when they start supporting virtual Port-Channels in the N5K series sometime

This was discussed a few months back on list. ISSU isn't supported on the 3750's and to be honest, quite a few people have issues with stacks as is. Cisco is driving ISSU with the modular switching platforms (4500/6500/Nexus). What Peter describes with using the 10G links on the -E series is defini

You need to connect to the management instance in order for admin both contexts through ASDM. Typically this is over the management interface or sub vlan interface allocated to the management instance. From there you should be able to see/admin all 3 contexts. On Mon, Nov 17, 2008 at 9:51 AM, Ibra
