Cisco Nexus 7000 M3-Series - Switch - L3 - 24 x 40 Gigabit Ethernet - plug-in module - remanufactured
-
General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) Tunneling Protocol (GTP) hashing
This feature uses the advanced packet parsing capabilities of the M3-Series modules to provide enhanced port-channel and equal-cost multipath (ECMP) load balancing for GTP packets.
-
Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN)
VXLAN enables organizations to build highly scalable virtual overlay networks for virtualized environments. It also provides the architectural flexibility and agility required to scale cloud deployments with repeatable pods in different Layer 2 domains and to migrate virtual machines between servers across Layer 3 networks.
-
Advanced data center interconnect (DCI) protocols
Advanced protocols such as Cisco Overlay Transport Virtualization (OTV), Locator/ID Separation Protocol (LISP), Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), and Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) offer customers a broad choice of technologies to transparently interconnect their data centers and to extend applications across geographically dispersed data center sites.
-
Virtual device context (VDC)
This feature enables the virtualization of a single physical device as multiple logical devices. Each provisioned logical device is configured and managed as if it were a separate physical device.
Cisco Nexus 7000 series Switches are the foundation of Cisco Unified Fabric solutions. Designed to meet the requirements of mission-critical data centers, these switches deliver exceptional availability, outstanding scalability, and the proven and comprehensive Cisco NX-OS Software data center switching feature set.
The first in the next generation of data center switching platforms, the Cisco Nexus 7000 series provides integrated resilience combined with features optimized specifically for availability, reliability, scalability, and ease of management. The Cisco Nexus 7000 series fabric architecture scales beyond 17 terabits per second (Tbps) and is designed to support high-density 10, 40, and 100 Gigabit Ethernet deployments. Table 1 summarizes the 1 and 10 Gigabit Ethernet port density of switches in this platform.
