Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 7009 / Maximum Distance For FCOE?

Apr 3, 2012

We are looking to deploy two Nexus 7009 cores at our two datacenters. They are approximately 2 miles apart. We are hoping to have 10G Dark Fiber between the buildings and therefore dedicate a pair for FCOE between the cores using 10G Long Range SFP's. I read that the Nexus 5000 series had a limit of ~3 km for FCOE. Does the same hold true for the 7000 series? I thought I read somehwere that the buffers were larger on the 7000 series and therefore would be able to do ~30 km.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 5548UP - FCoE QoS Configuration

Dec 6, 2012

I am looking to implement a QoS policy on a pair of Nexus 5548 UPs. FCoE is a factor here. I have created the following configuration and would like to get a few pairs of eyes to take a look at this for a quick sanity check.
 
How to make sure this config is valid. Also, I realize I'm applying an MTU of 9216 to all classes right now, this will be phased out incrementally.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Upgrade Nexus 7009 6.0.1 To 6.1.2?

Feb 3, 2013

I need to upgrade my core switches at one of our locations (two 7009s with dual sups) from 6.0.1 to 6.1.2.  After looking through the release notes it appears that this will be a disruptive upgrade?how long should I expect for the disruption?  Are we talking a 7009 boot cycle (10 - 15 minutes) or something longer?How many disruptions can I expect?  I suspect 1 per chassis during the failover to the standby but I'd like to validate.Is there any compelling reason to upgrade the EPDL?  From what I can see, again from the release notes, this is only necessary with F2 cards if I were to upgrade to Sup2s . I'm in a healthcare environment and this upgrade will be affecting one of our major campuses so the more info I can get to the managers the more accepting they will be for the disruptions.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Upload Large ACLs To NX-OS Nexus 7009?

Feb 3, 2013

We are migrating from Catalyst 6509 IOS platforms to Nexus 7009. There's the normal differences in commands which is well doucumented. We do have some quite large files containing ACLs varying from 10's of lines to several 1000's of lines. Our normal upload would be done using tftp and then issuing the command 'conf net' on the the 6509. This is no longer the way to do this on NX-OS. I've tried copy ftp: running-config which works fine for small files but for big ones it takes a long time, in some cases I've see it takes 20-30 minutes. The initilal tftp uplaod to the 7009 seems OK but the copy into the running-config is the bit that takes time and initially I thought I'd killed the 7009!! It did finally come back to the prompt. Are the 7009's simply not designed for large ACLs? I did try the configure session (Session Manager) but I couldn't see a way of uploading a file. I tried creating a new session and then exiting it, copying in a file of the same format and then commiting it but it didn't seem to acknowledge the file (checksum?).

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 6509 - Nexus 7009 Rack Concerns

Mar 5, 2013

I wanted to know if any has the Nexus 7009 chassis installed into a 600 wide rack with the sides fitted and if they are experiencing heat issues? 
 
My client will be replacing their aging 6509 chassis with 7009 devices, but the physicals dont tally with the install guidelines for the 7009 series chassis.  The current install of the 6509s does not tally with the recommended install guidelines for those either, but they have not expereienced any heat issues...
 
The 7009 will be fitted with 2xSUP2E, 3x48portSFP-F2E cards and 2x10GSFP-M2 cards with 2x6K PSUs.  I am genuinely concerned they may cook these devices, but space restrictions look like vetoing the upgrade to 800 wide racks.  Likewise moving to 7010 chassis may prove tricky due to existing other installs within the racks limiting vertical space.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 7009 Need To Configure DCNM Server To Get License

Jun 18, 2012

We've gotten two Nexus 7009's in and I'm starting to configure them when I found I couldn't add VDCs.  I found there was no license installed but the only licenses I found that came with them are "Cisco DCNM for LAN Enterprise Lic for one Nexus 7000 Chassis".  So my question is this - do I need to configure a DCNM server to get the license pushed to these two 7009s or should there be another PAK for each chassis that I can register and get my enterprise services?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 7009 - Syslog Configuration Doesn't Seem To Work For NX-OS

Sep 10, 2012

we've been using IOS for a long time, but are relatively new to NX-OS. We've got a central syslog server that all our devices log to. No matter what we do, we can't get our Nexus switches to log there. Here's my current attempt:
 
Nexus 7009, NX-OS 6.0(1)
 
# sh logging server
Logging server:                 enabled
{redacted}
server severity:        debugging
server facility:        local7
server VRF:             default

[code].....
 
The default VRF is working. I see log entries in the logfile, but nothing arrives at the syslog server. It's not a config issue on the server, because tcpdump shows that no packets arrive from the IP for loopback 0.

Cisco Switching/Routing :: Nexus 2000 Interaction With Parent 5000 - Distance Parameter?

Oct 15, 2012

I am designing a network for my client where I have to implement a 10 Gig end to end connectivity. The major factor of concern from my management is about scalability (space to include more 10Gig servers as the nodes grow up). I have suggested Cisco 5596UP with 2232 PP as this gives ample amount of 10Gig ports. The setup has to be implemented across 2 different datacenters located 40 Kms apart, connected with 10Gig DC Interconnect.
 
I understand that Cisco Nexus 2232 is a Layer 2 Only switch and would need to communicate with parent 5K switch very frequently. Is it necessary to have the 2K and 5K pair in the same datacenter or in proximity? Is it possible to have the SFP uplinks connected to the DC interconnect? Because we have two datacenters located 40 Kms apart and having 1*Layer 3 - 5K switch at DC A with Layer 2 - 2K nexus Switch at DC B will be cost effective. We do require more 10Gig ports and not much requirement on Layer 3 usage. What are the type of communication that would be much frequent between 2K and 5K?

Cisco AAA / Identity / Nac :: Nexus 7009 - Integration Of ACS With RSA

We have Nexus7009 at client network but due to limitation of Nexus switches that they can not be directly integrate Nexus with RSA so client has purchased cisco ACS for the AAA. We are able to do the authentication and authorization via ACS.However clients wants to further integrate the ACS with RSA so that authentication should happen via RSA and authorization should happen ACS. Is that possible ? if yes, how can i configure the ACS ?

Cisco Switching/Routing :: 7009 - VPC Cluster To VSS Using Port-Channels

Nov 6, 2012

We have a vPC cluster of two Nexus 7009 that needs to be connected with a VSS cluster of two Catalyst 6509s. The VSS has been working fine for a while and the vPC cluster is new equipment.
 
Attached there is a detailed diagram of the connections; the VSS cluster connects the interfaces Ten1/2/8 and Ten 2/2/8 using the PortChannel 28 going to the the vPC cluster to the interfaces Eth 4/18 of each switch.
 
Both the vPC and the VSS are well configured; last night we tried to brought up the connection between the two clusters but only the first interface comes up within the etherchannel; the secondary one did not come up and shows (not receiving LACP packets).
 
We know Layer 1 is fine because if we remove the interface from the EtherChannel it does come up; but causes some STP loop and bring the network down; thus the solution is to form a EtherChannel.
 
At the VSS Clúster we see LACP packets being sent with sh lacp counters but we DO NOT see LACP packets being received in the interface of the secondary Nexus.
 
Right now, this is not possible to troubleshoot since it is a production enviroment; so I'm looking for problems with the configuration or recommendations to follow in order to apply them tomorrow night during a new maintenance window.
 
These are the configurations:
 
#######vPC cluster of Nexus 7009######
 
--N7K-1--
 
interface port-channel418
 
  description Uplink 20 GE hacia VSS
 
  switchport
