Introduction

The Cisco Nexus 1000V provides a distributed, Layer 2 virtual switch that extends across many virtualized hosts. The Cisco Nexus 1000V manages a data center defined by the vCenter Server. Each server in the data center is represented as a line card in Cisco Nexus 1000V and can be managed as if it were a line card in a physical Cisco switch.

Cisco Nexus 1000V consists of the following two components:

•Virtual Supervisor Module (VSM), which contains the Cisco CLI, configuration, and high-level features.

•Virtual Ethernet Module (VEM), which acts as a line card and runs in each virtualized server to handle packet forwarding and other localized functions.

Software Compatibility

This section includes the following topics:

•Software Compatibility with VMware

•Software Compatibility with Cisco Nexus 1000V

Software Compatibility with VMware

The servers that run the Cisco Nexus 1000V VSM and VEM must be in the VMware Hardware Compatibility list. This release of Cisco Nexus 1000V supports vSphere 4.0.0, 4.1.0 and 5.0.0 release trains. For additional compatibility information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Compatibility Information, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

---

Note All virtual machine network adapter types that VMware vSphere supports are supported with Cisco Nexus 1000V. Refer to the VMware documentation when choosing a network adapter. For more information, see the VMware Knowledge Base article #1001805.

---

Software Compatibility with Cisco Nexus 1000V

This release supports hitless upgrades from Release 4.0(4)SV1(3a) and later releases. Upgrades are supported from 4.0(4)SV1(3) and earlier releases. For additional information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Software Upgrade Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

New and Changed Information

This section provides the following information about this release:

•Changed Software Features

•New Software Features

Changed Software Features

The following software features were changed in this release:

•Scalability Limits

Scalability Limits

Scalability limits for multiple features have been increased in this release; refer to the "Configuration Limits" section for updated limits.

New Software Features

The following new software features were added in this release:

•Support for vSphere 5.0.0

•In Service Software Upgrade

•Distributed Virtual Switch Deletion

•VSM Backup and Recovery

•Dynamic Port Management

•Unknown Unicast Flood Blocking

•SMNP ACL

•Virtual Port Channel - Host Mode Enhancements

•Backup Subgroups

•High Availability Enhancements

•Virtualized Workload Mobility (DC to DC vMotion)

Support for vSphere 5.0.0

This release is compatible with all features of vSphere 5.0.0 including Stateless ESXi. Download the compatible VEM from the location specified in the Cisco Nexus 1000V VEM Software Installation and Upgrade Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

In Service Software Upgrade

VSM upgrades from Release 4.2(1)SV1(4) to Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a) and later use the In Service Software Upgrade (ISSU) install feature that was introduced in Release 4.2(1)SV1(4). You can now use this functionality in Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a). The ISSU install feature upgrades the VSM images while preserving the configuration and state of the VSM. It does not interrupt operations. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Software Upgrade Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Distributed Virtual Switch Deletion

The Cisco Nexus 1000V provides the capablity for the privileged users to remove a stale distributed virtual switch (DVS) on the host. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V System Management Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

VSM Backup and Recovery

Support for backing up the VSM VM and its configuration so that it can be restored at a later time in case of accidental VSM deletions or disk corruptions has been implemented. The VSM backup and recovery operation requires coordination between the network and server administrators. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V System Management Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Dynamic Port Management

Cisco Nexus 1000VV has the capability to dynamicaly adjust the number of ports consumed at the vCenter vDS. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Port Profile Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Unknown Unicast Flood Blocking

Unknown Unicast Flood Blocking (UUFB) allows you to configure the system to drop the unknown Unicast packets coming from the uplink ports. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Security Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

SMNP ACL

Standard Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) supports source-based filtering from the SNMP-COMMUNITY-MIB. This requires the configuration of the SNMP community table. By integrating with the existing access control list (ACL) feature in NX-OS, you can easily apply source-based filtering. You can configure ACL to be associated with all the incoming requests for a particular community. SNMP matches the community and ACL, and processes the request accordingly. If the ACL denies access to SNMP, then SNMP prints a syslog at error level. If ACL permits processing of the message, SNMP processes the packet as usual. This ACL is applied both for IPv4 and IPv6 over both User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP).

Virtual Port Channel - Host Mode Enhancements

Virtual Port Channel - Host Mode (vPC-HM) enhancements supports the logical numbering of subgroups in the port channel mac-pinning mode. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Port Profile Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Backup Subgroups

This feature allows for the assignment of up to seven backup subgroups. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Port Profile Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

High Availability Enhancements

The behavior of some error handling functionality in High Availability (HA) has been modified from earlier releases. When communication over the control interface is interrupted, the standby VSM is reset once and only after the active and standby VSMs have lost syncronization. If communication over the control interface is not available, the standby VSM will wait for communication to be restored before initiating the synchronization with the active VSM.

Virtualized Workload Mobility (DC to DC vMotion)

This feature allows for a single Cisco Nexus 1000V instance spanning across two data centers. The maximum support latency is 5ms. See Table 1 for the supported limits across two data centers. For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V System Management Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

1 Only one connection to vCenter server is permitted at a time. 2 This number can be exceeded if VEM has available memory.

Single VMware Data Center Support

The Cisco Nexus 1000V can be connected to a single VMware vCenter Server data center object. Note that this virtual data center can span across multiple physical data centers.

vMotion of VSM

vMotion of the VSM has the following limitations and restrictions:

•vMotion of a VSM is supported for both the active and standby VSM VMs. For high availability, we recommend that the active VSM and standby VSM reside on separate hosts.

•If you enable Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), then you must use the VMware anti-affinity rules to ensure that the two virtual machines are never on the same host, and that a host failure cannot result in the loss of both the active and standby VSM.

•VMware vMotion does not complete when using an open virtual appliance (OVA) VSM deployment if the CD image is still mounted. To complete the vMotion, either click Edit Settings on the VM to disconnect the mounted CD image, or power off the VM. No functional impact results from this limitation.

•If you are adding one host in a DRS cluster that is using vSwitch to a VSM, you must move the remaining hosts in the DRS cluster to the VSM. Otherwise, the DRS logic does not work, the VMs that are deployed on the VEM could be moved to a host in the cluster that does not have VEM, and the VMs lose network connectivity.

For more information about vMotion of VSM, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Software Installation Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

VMware Lab Manager

VMware Lab Manager does not support using the Cisco Nexus 1000V.

Upgrades

Upgrading the software has the following limitations and restrictions:

•The upgrade procedure to Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a) has changed depending on the version you are upgrading from.

•Unlike previous upgrades, disruption free upgrades from Release 4.0(4)SV1(3) and later to Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a) require the VEMs to be upgraded prior to upgrading the VSM.

•VEM upgrade to Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a) requires a minimum ESX/ESXi version of 4.0 Update 1 Patch 04 or later.

•VEM Upgrade using VMware Update Manager (VUM) requires vCenter Update 1, VUM Patch 2 or later.

For more information about VMware compatibility, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Compatibility Information, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

For more information about upgrades, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Software Upgrade Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Access Lists

ACLs have the following limitations and restrictions:

Limitations:

•IPV6 ACL rules are not supported.

•VLAN-based ACLs (VACLs) are not supported.

•ACLs are not supported on port channels.

Restrictions:

•IP ACL rules do not support the following:

–fragments option

–addressgroup option

–portgroup option

–interface ranges

•Control VLAN traffic between the VSM and VEM does not go through ACL processing.

NetFlow

The NetFlow configuration has the following support, limitations, and restrictions:

•Layer 2 match fields are not supported.

•NetFlow Sampler is not supported.

•NetFlow Exporter format V9 is supported

•NetFlow Exporter format V5 is not supported.

•The multicast traffic type is not supported. Cache entries are created for multicast packets, but the packet/byte count does not reflect replicated packets.

•NetFlow is not supported on port channels.

The NetFlow cache table has the following limitation:

•Immediate and permanent cache types are not supported.

---

Note The cache size that is configured using the CLI defines the number of entries, not the size in bytes. The configured entries are allocated for each processor in the ESX host and the total memory allocated depends on the number of processors.

---

Port Security

Port security has the following support, limitations, and restrictions:

•Port security is enabled globally by default.
The feature/no feature port-security command is not supported.

•In response to a security violation, you can shut down the port.

•The port security violation actions that are supported on a secure port are Shutdown and Protect. The Restrict violation action is not supported.

•Port security is not supported on the PVLAN promiscuous ports.

Port Profiles

Port profiles have the following restrictions or limitations:

•There is a limit of 255 characters in a port-profile command attribute.

•We recommend that you save the configuration across reboots, which will shorten the VSM bringup time.

•We recommend that if you are altering or removing a port channel, you should migrate the interfaces that inherit the port channel port profile should migrate to a port profile with the desired configuration, rather than editing the original port channel port profile directly.

•If you attempt to remove a port profile that is in use, that is, one that has already been auto-assigned to an interface, the Cisco Nexus 1000V generates an error message and does not allow the removal.

•When you remove a port profile that is mapped to a VMware port group, the associated port group and settings within the vCenter Server are also removed.

•Policy names are not checked against the policy database when ACL/NetFlow policies are applied through the port profile. It is possible to apply a nonexistent policy.

Telnet Enabled by Default

The Telnet server is enabled by default.

For more information about Telnet, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Security Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

SSH Support

Only SSH version 2 (SSHv2) is supported.

For more information, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Security Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

Cisco NX-OS Commands Might Differ from Cisco IOS

Be aware that the Cisco NX-OS CLI commands and modes might differ from those commands and modes used in the Cisco IOS software.

For information about CLI commands, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Command Reference, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4).

For more information about the CLI command modes, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Getting Started Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a)

Layer 2 Switching

This section lists the Layer 2 switching limitations and restrictions and includes the following topics:

•No Spanning Tree Protocol

For more information about Layer 2 switching, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V Layer 2 Switching Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4).

No Spanning Tree Protocol

The Cisco Nexus 1000V forwarding logic is designed to prevent network loops so it does not need to use the Spanning Tree Protocol. Packets that are received from the network on any link connecting the host to the network are not forwarded back to the network by the Cisco Nexus 1000V.

Cisco Discovery Protocol

The Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) is enabled globally by default.

CDP runs on all Cisco-manufactured equipment over the data link layer and does the following:

•Advertises information to all attached Cisco devices.

•Discovers and views information about those Cisco devices.

–CDP can discover up to 256 neighbors per port if the port is connected to a hub with 256 connections.

If you disable CDP globally, then CDP is also disabled for all interfaces.

For more information about CDP, see the Cisco Nexus 1000V System Management Configuration Guide, Release 4.2(1)SV1(4a).

DHCP Not Supported for the Management IP

DHCP is not supported for the management IP. The management IP must be configured statically.

LACP

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is an IEEE standard protocol that aggregates Ethernet links into an EtherChannel.

Cisco Nexus 1000V has the following restrictions for enabling LACP on ports carrying the control and packet VLANs:

---

Note These restrictions do not apply to other data ports using LACP.

---

•If LACP offload is disabled, at least two ports must be configured as part of LACP channel.

---

Note This restriction is not applicable if LACP offload is enabled. You can check the LACP offload status using the show lacp offload status command.

---

•The upstream switch ports must be configured in spanning-tree port type edge trunk mode.

Without spanning-tree portfast on upstream switch ports, it takes approximately 30 seconds to recover these ports on the upstream switch. Because these ports are carrying control and packet VLANs, VSM loses connectivity to the VEM.

The following commands are available to use on Cisco upstream switch ports in interface configuration mode:

–spanning-tree portfast

–spanning-tree portfast trunk

–spanning-tree portfast edge trunk

DNS Resolution

The Cisco Nexus 1010 (1000V) cannot resolve a domain name or hostname to an IP address.

Interfaces

When the maximum transmission unit (MTU) is configured on an operationally up interface, the interface goes down and comes back up.
