[c-nsp] N7K FAB/SUP

[Tim Stevenson]

Hi Tim, please see inline below:

At 11:55 AM 8/31/2011, Tim Durack mused:

>Given that the NEXUS C7009 is public, and ships with FAB2, is there a
>FAB2 upgrade plan for C7010 and C7018?

Yes, it's no secret that fabric 2 is planned for all N7K chassis.


>Is FAB1 -> FAB2 an in-service upgrade?

Yes, that is the plan.


>As the SUP handles fabric arbitration, does a FAB upgrade require a
>SUP upgrade too?

No, sup upgrade is NOT required.


Hope that helps,
Tim
