Parent device for N2k

[hans.velez]

Hi all,

a Nexus 7k can be a parent device for a nexus 2k with FEX?? Which kind of line cards can have the FEX??

Yes, but you must have an M1/M2/F2 10G card. Take a look at this link.

And keep in mind that you cannot cross connect FEXes to 7K, as you can do with 2K-5K pairs.

If you want to connect your FEX to your 7K, what supervisor cards do you have and what exactly are the FEX models?
