Nexus 5596 requirement

[Victoro151207]

Hi All,

Have a requirement from customer,
44 port 10 GbT
32 unified port
Advance layer 3 ospf bgp supported

Does 5596 can comply these requirements?
Tried to configure combination of module but seems cant. Since we must purchase the layer 3 module right?

Any advice?
