Introduction

Hybrid cloud is an interaction between private and public clouds where private clouds extend to public clouds and utilize public cloud resources in a secure and scalable way. Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud provides the architectural foundation for secure hybrid clouds, allowing enterprises to easily and securely connect the enterprise data center to the public cloud. With a hybrid cloud, enterprises can combine the benefits of public and private clouds.

Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud provides the following benefits:

•Provides a highly secure Layer 2 connectivity between the enterprise data center and the public cloud.

•Provides a single pane of management across enterprise data centers and public clouds through Cisco Prime Network Services Controller.

•Enables use of same network policies and services across private and public clouds.

Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud Architecture

CSCuh01339	Cisco Nexus 1000V InterCloud VSM deployment on a Cisco Nexus Cloud Services Platform hangs at the `VSB DEPLOY IN PROGRESS' state when the domain ID is greater than 1024.
CSCug56679	The show ip igmp snooping querier detail command output does not display the querier details.
CSCug77246	Static multicast entries are not configured on the InterCloud Swtich after a vlan is deleted and recreated. Workaround: Delete and re-program the static IGMP entries.
CSCug77270	The show processes cpu command output displays incorrect CPU utilization statistics in the InterCloud Extender.
CSCug31353	Unable to delete dynamic group entries which are discovered on a vEth interface.
