UCS P81E Virtual Interface Card

[joe_chris]

Hi all,

This is a newbie question.

1. Is the UCS P81E Virtual Interface Card compatible with Cisco Catalyst 3750-X and 3560-X Series Switches 10GE Network Module (C3KX-NM-10G)?

2. Does VIC require a DCE switch such as the Nexus 5000?

3. Does VIC require a FCoE switch such as the Nexus 5000?

4. Is there any other requirement?

TIA

Joseph

for server uplink to the LAN Nexus is not a must

FCoE if used you need a device support it like nexus if you not using it then you do not need

if want to use multiple gourp links/etherchanne you could use LACP with the Cisco switch

other requriments is make sure you allow the vlans created in you VM enviroment to be paased over the trunk link in the switch port
