C6807 module cards difference

[CSCO13161215]

Hello everyone,

Please help me on this, we have Cisco 6807XL chassis switch. We are in need to add module cards to the chassis.

We need 32 port. Please clarify the difference between 

C6800-32P10G

C6800-32P10G-XL

These two both suitable for the chassis we have. Is it depends upon the chassis type XL or any other specific reason is there please help.

Hello,

both modules are supported on both the 6807XL and 650x-E series chassis.

The XL card has different specs with regard to  the amount of PV4/IPV6 Multicast routes, ACL entries, and NetFlow entries.

Post the output to the command "sh module" and see if the supervisor card has "XL" or not.
If the supervisor card doesn't have "XL" then you don't need to get the C6800-32P10G-XL. If the supervisor card is already "XL" then you will see benefits in getting the C6800-32P10G-XL.
