Re: [c-nsp] Fabricpath and L3 on the same line card
I have 7K with fabricpath, SVI's, and routed interfaces... The box is purely F2 linecards... I'm not aware of limitations and I have not had any problems with it thus far... -Original Message- From: cisco-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net [mailto:cisco-nsp-boun...@puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Chris Evans Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2013 11:57 AM To: cisco-nsp Subject: [c-nsp] Fabricpath and L3 on the same line card Can anyone tell me if Cisco F2/F2e line modules can run Fabricpath and L3 (SVI's) on the same line module. Is it line rate as well or does it proxy through an ASIC burning ports, etc. Is an M1 module required? Someone has told me it cannot, but I believe it can. Are there any limitations with it? ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/ ___ cisco-nsp mailing list cisco-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/

At 10:12 AM 3/21/2013 Thursday, Chris Evans announced: Okay great, that is what I thought.. Seems like a simple feature to miss. Do you know if there are any performance limitations with it? F2/E can generally do L2 & L3 at equal rate. Like could internal ports be burned for routing efforts? Absolutely not. Tim It seems that many companies have problems with the TRILL header and can't do SVI natively like we can today. How these chips can handle MPLS, GRE, and other headers with no issues and not TRILL is interesting to me.

Re: [c-nsp] Fabricpath and L3 on the same line card
Well, I'm doing it, so I guess it can. And F2 modules must be in a VDC by themselves, so no M1 could possibly be involved. Paul Lustgraafgr...@iastate.edu "Change is inevitable. Progress is not."
