Cisco Switching/Routing :: Max Power Consumption Of Nexus 7009?
Mar 3, 2013
I need to figure out the max power consumption of 7009. The issue is, at this point i am not sure what modules will be used, so just to give an estimate, how we calculate the max power consumption of nexus 7009 ?
We are planning for the office move and I need to estimate how much power we need to run a fully populated Cat4507R switch. The chassis include 2 Sups, one 6-port fiber line card, two 48-port Gig and two 48-port FastEthernet line cards. The switch also has redundant power supply (4200ACV 1400W). According to Cisco Power Calculator [URL], I need 49.5 amp 110-120V circuit. It seems to be too much higher than real world. How many 20amp circuit we would need when all the ports are fully utilized?
I have 2 x 3560e-24td-s 2 x ASA5510 2 x 2821(no modules) 2 x 2901
I'm trying to figure out power draw in Amps for my new cabinet. I looked at the data sheet for the 2821 and it says 3A for the 110V under the row AC Input Current, Would that be accurate if I did that for all the models and then just added up the total?
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.
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?).
I wanted to know that in nexus 7009, can i use mix of F2/M1/M2 series line cards ? will they work with each other ? Lets say i have F2 line card and M2 line card, will servers attached to them will communicate with each other ?
We have Nexus 7009 switch and want to configure the span session
We are using F2 and M2 card both are in seperate differeent VDC.And out server is connected to M2 card on eth 4/6 and want to monitor the traffic from vlan 161Which is made on F2 card.
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.
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.
I am calculating Cisco 4500X power consumption requirements to select appropriate UPS systems. I have 4500X switch with dual power supplies.which value should I take for power consumption calculation, in data sheet it has two values: AC Power Max Rating: 750W System Power Consumption: 330W nominal/400W max
Which values should I take, to calculate UPS systems capacity? And also I am interesting when 4500x has two power supplies what is power consumption?
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?
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.
Is there any challenge to upgrade core switch 6500 series from Nexus 7009 which runs NxOS, because i have 3750X series switches connected at distribution and access layer in my network topology??
Is there any challenge if we place NxOS in core and IOS in distribution and Access layer??? how we are able to match sh run config in existing 6500 switch to Nexus 7009 NXOS?
I would like to know if the power the Nexus 7K allocates per module is configurable?For example, we are only using the 8 didicated ports on our N7K-M132XP-12 card. The Nexus budgets 750W for the module, but given that we will only ever use 8 of the 32 ports we would like to allocate the remaining power elsewhere.
We have a nexus 5k, and it kind of got hung today... it is running. Version 5.1(3)N2(1b) the reset reason shows.Power down due to temperature sensor policy trigger.It doesn't look documented. What policy is it referring to? not sure if this is an IOS bug ?
I am trying the connection above using 10G spf connectors. Is there any special configuration in order to have a trunk (with 2 disctinct vlans) betwen NX7000 and DELL 6224 ?
How to properly power down the Nexus 5000 and the fabric interconnect switches? I have looked up and down cisco's and google web for steps, but they are all coming back with the answer to just disconnect the power cables after you have power down all the windows os and exs servers. Before i do that, I just wanted to make sure that that's the correct way to do it or if there are actual commands that I will need to run on the devices to properly power down. I know that the FI do have a command to reboot, but i need them to completely be power down.
We just purchased a Nexus 7010 switch and we are at a stand still with our COLO trying to figure out what power source should be provided. APC recommends a 50amp 3phase vertical cabinet PDU (AP7867). What type of power sourcereakers will be sufficient in handling the Nexus 7k /w (3) power supplies? Do the COLO need to provide single phase or 3 phase power recepticals?
I have a nexus 7009 that used to work connecting via SSH. However now I cannot connect to it via ssh. It appears the SSH is connects but doing a show users from the console shows nothing connected other than the console connection.
I wondered, how much power do the SRP520-U series actual draw? Compared to commonly used home-grade equipment I think the power consumption is above average?
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 ?
I have setup my radius server access on the Nexus but am unable to authenticate through putty. If I do a radius-server test on the Nexus it says I authenticate. Here is the log I am getting.

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.
My company is composed of three different campuses, all with a similar network topology. We currently are experiencing high bandwidth on our serial interface at one of the campuses in particular. The network is composed of about 20 VLANS routed internally using a Cisco 6509. Traffic to the outside is PAT’d by an ASA 5510 and then forwarded through our edge router interface. Each VLAN is PAT’d to a specific public address.Due to the PAT, how would you recommend determining what specific private addresses are consuming our resources on the serial interface. When I look at our NMS, it reports the public address, but that only narrows it down to a VLAN. For example, all the devices in VLAN 6 are translated to 146.34.118.245, and 146.34.11.245 is a top talker.

After stacking two 3750X switches, with four equal power-supply's, with StackWise and PowerStack , still got the next message every few hours %PLATFORM_ENV-1-FRU_PS_ACCESS: FRU Power Supply is not responding (gn4m-rt1p08-04-2)( note that the message revers to the second switch in the stack ) although the stackwise and powerstack on the switches is oke and are working correctly. !
Config : Stack-power in power-sharing mode/strict With CLI on the switch : All the power supply's and stack-power details, prio look OK.
Only: LMS prime /inventory/cisco-view/configure/power supply status result : some power supply's are marked as disabled.with the command > power supply 2 slot a off/on I manage to get the status back to "normal", but after a few hours some power supply's are again marked as "disabled".
We have two switches of the same model (WS-C3560-48PS-S) that are not providing PoE. I'm trying to remotely determine what the cause of the issue is.
Here is some output.
