The Cisco Nexus N7K-F306CK-25 is a 6-port Ethernet module designed for use with the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches. It is capable of delivering high-performance and high-density Ethernet connectivity for data center and enterprise networks.
The performance of the N7K-F306CK-25 module is impressive, with each port capable of delivering up to 40 Gigabits per second (Gbps) of non-blocking forwarding capacity. This means that the module can provide a total forwarding capacity of up to 240 Gbps.
The throughput of the N7K-F306CK-25 module is also very high. It supports multiple Layer 2 and Layer 3 protocols, including VLAN, QoS, and STP, and is designed to provide efficient and reliable data transmission across the network. The module is also equipped with advanced features such as virtual PortChannel (vPC) and FabricPath, which help to increase network scalability, resiliency, and flexibility.
In terms of scalability, the N7K-F306CK-25 module is designed to support a wide range of network architectures, including spine-and-leaf and core-aggregation designs. It can be easily integrated into existing Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switch deployments, making it an ideal solution for organizations looking to upgrade their network infrastructure.
Reliability and AvailabilityThe N7K-F306CK-25 is a Cisco Nexus 6-port Ethernet module designed for use in the Cisco Nexus 7000 series of data center switches. When it comes to reliability and availability, several factors come into play:
- Hardware Quality: Cisco is known for its high-quality networking equipment, and the N7K-F306CK-25 module is no exception. It is designed to meet or exceed industry standards for reliability and durability, and is built using high-quality components that are tested rigorously for performance and reliability.
- Redundancy: The Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches are designed to be highly redundant, with features like hot-swappable power supplies, fans, and modules, as well as redundant supervisors and fabric modules. This means that if one component fails, another one can take over without disrupting network operations.
- MTBF and MTTR: The Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) and Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) are key metrics used to measure the reliability and availability of networking equipment. While Cisco does not publish specific MTBF and MTTR figures for the N7K-F306CK-25 module, it is likely that they are in line with industry standards for similar equipment.
- Software Support: The N7K-F306CK-25 module is designed to work with the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches, which are backed by Cisco's extensive software support infrastructure. This includes regular software updates, patches, and bug fixes, as well as access to Cisco's technical support resources.
The Cisco Nexus 7K-F306CK-25 is a 6-port Ethernet module designed for use in the Cisco Nexus 7000 series switches. This module supports up to six 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) connections and can be configured and managed using Cisco's NX-OS software.
Here are the key steps for configuring and managing the N7K-F306CK-25 module:
- Physical installation: Before configuring the module, ensure that it is properly installed in the switch chassis and connected to the appropriate network cables.
- Configuration: You can configure the module using the command-line interface (CLI) or the web-based Cisco Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) software. Here are some of the key configuration tasks you might perform:
- VLAN configuration: You can configure VLANs on the module to separate network traffic into different logical domains.
- Port configuration: You can configure the ports on the module to support different speeds and duplex modes, as well as to enable or disable certain features such as Quality of Service (QoS) or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).
- Security configuration: You can configure access control lists (ACLs) on the module to control which packets are allowed or denied on the network.
- Management: The N7K-F306CK-25 module can be managed using various tools, including the CLI, DCNM, and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Here are some of the key management tasks you might perform:
- Monitoring: You can use tools such as show commands in the CLI or graphical interfaces in DCNM to monitor the status of the module and its ports.
- Troubleshooting: If you encounter problems with the module, you can use diagnostic tools such as packet capture or loopback testing to isolate the issue.
- Firmware updates: You can update the firmware on the module using the CLI or DCNM to ensure that it is running the latest software version with any bug fixes or security patches.
