Bundled software: NX-OS 4.0The CiscoВ® Nexus 7000 Series Supervisor Module scales the control plane and data plane services for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series system in scalable data center networks. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Switches comprise a modular data center-class product line designed for highly scalable 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks with a fabric architecture that scales beyond 15 terabits per second (Tbps). Designed to meet the requirements of the most mission-critical data centers, it delivers continuous system operation and virtualized, pervasive services. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series is based on a proven operating system, with enhanced features to deliver real-time system upgrades with exceptional manageability and serviceability. Its innovative design is purpose built to support end-to-end data center connectivity, consolidating IP, storage, and interprocess communication (IPC) networks onto a single Ethernet fabric. The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Supervisor Module is designed to deliver scalable control plane and management functions for the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series chassis. It is based on a dual core processor that scales the control plane by harnessing the flexibility and power of the dual cores. The supervisors control the Layer 2 and 3 services, redundancy capabilities, configuration management, status monitoring, power and environmental management, and more. It provides centralized arbitration to the system fabric for all line cards. The fully distributed forwarding architecture allows the supervisor to support transparent upgrades to higher forwarding capacity-capable I/O and fabric modules. The supervisor incorporates an innovative dedicated connectivity management processor (CMP) to support remote management and troubleshooting of the complete system. Two supervisors are required for a fully redundant system, with one supervisor module running as the active device and the other in hot standby mode, providing exceptional high-availability features in data center-class products. Supervisor Module The Cisco Nexus 7000 Series Supervisor Module delivers a comprehensive set of features to address the needs of the most demanding data center deployments. Continuous system operation - Active and standby supervisor. - Segmented and redundant out-of-band provisioning and management paths. - Virtualization of the management plane. - Integrated diagnostics and protocol decoding with an embedded control plane packet analyzer. Upgradeable architecture - Fully decoupled control plane and data plane with no hardware forwarding on the module. - Distributed forwarding architecture, allowing independent upgrades of the supervisor and fabric. - Unified Fabric ready. - Transparent upgrade capacity and capability; designed to support 40 Gigabit and 100 Gigabit Ethernet. Superior operational efficiency - System locator and beacon LEDs for simplified operations. - Dedicated out-of-band management processor for `lights out' management.
