Hello @Ibrahim Jamil,

If the F2 and F2E line cards meet your requirements for L2 and L3 functionalities, and they support the features you need for OTV, FP, VxLAN, and routing, you may not necessarily need an M line card. The M line card may still have a role in certain scenarios where additional capacity, features, or specific technology support is required. For instance, if you are deploying large-scale data center networks with advanced features, the M line cards could complement the capabilities of the F2 and F2E line cards.

Best regards
