Nexus 1000v with Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V

[Peter Palasti]

Hi there,

customer use Hyper-V on Windows Server 2012R2 with Nexus 1000v. Everything is fine, but they think upgrade own server for Windows 2016.

Mostly use this for ERSPAN and ordinary switching function.

Unfortunately, this verison isn't supported with the Nexus 1000v.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks,

Peter

Hi Peter,

It is not supported as you rightly said as per the Release notes

http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus1000/hyperv/sw/5_2_1_s_m_3_1_1b/release-notes/n1000v_rel_notes_521_SM_311b.html#pgfId-230121

Being supported does not mean it would not work, it may actually work but won't be TAC or BU supported in case of any issues.

I'm interesting too, I'll try it on a lab if applicable as Cisco claims not supported yet but it doesn't mean that it will not work.

if you have any helpful info please share it.
