[j-nsp] Comparision between Cisco and Juniper Data Center Switches

[Chen Jiang]

I have heard that NX2K couldn't do local switching and all frames must goes
to NX5K for L2 swtching. If the uplink NX5K fail, it will take some time to
recovery to another uplink NX5K. And NX5K doesn't support L3 routing, L3
routing is depend on NX7K..
