Caveats
Checkpoint and Configuration Rollback Limitation
When FCoE is enabled, the checkpoint and configuration rollback functionality is disabled.
Layer 3 Limitations
Asymmetric Configuration
In a vPC topology, two Cisco Nexus 5000 switches configured as vPC peer switches need to be
configured symmetrically for Layer 3 configurations such as SVIs, Peer Gateway, routing protocol and
policies, and RACLs.
Note vPC consistency check does not include Layer 3 parameters.
SVI
When a Layer 3 module goes offline, all SVIs are shutdown.
Upgrading and Downgrading
When a Layer 3 license is installed, the Cisco Nexus 5500 Platform does not support an ISSU. Layer 3
module hot swaps are not supported.
Cisco Nexus 5548P Daughter Card (N55-D160L3)
