[c-nsp] 4500X Roadmap

[CiscoNSP List]

N9K can do basic L3, but to do anything "more", it would be license purchase(s)

L3 is needed as well. L2TP support is a big plus too.

Do you only need L2?

Nexus 9K might fit your needs....not overly expensive, and you can run VPC (If you needed to vs VSS on 4500X)

Seems like it. I have a very small datacenter I am specing out, need are not very high, but 10gb is a requirement. 4500X would be a perfect fit if it had 40Gbe, although it still isn't out of the question.

We run some 4500X's, but were told by our Cisco AM last year that it(4500X platform) is not seen as a "long term" proposition....potential new model?

The 3850 recently got updated to have models that support 40Ggbe uplinks. Is there any word on the street about the 4500X getting 40Gbe modules? Seems weird this switch does not have the capability, but the lower end unit does.
