Nexus 5k-2k: Dual-homed and Single-homed together?

[shamg1974]

I have my Nexus 2232's (2) set up in a single-homed design to each 5548UP (2). I want to introduce a 3rd 2248, however, I want to dual-home this one to both 5k's. Will mixing both topologies cause an issues?

Thanks,

Bobby Grewal

Yes, it is possible.  Have a look at Figure-1 Design-2 in this link. 2 FEXs connect to 2 different 5Ks and one FEX connects to both.
