Hello All,
We are looking forward to implement IBM BladeCentre Swiches connectivity
with Nexus 2k module.
I would like to brief you about my network over as follows:
Coreswitch : 6513 ( Layer 3 switch + Spanning Tree root)
Nexus 5010 : Layer 2 switch
Nexus 2k 10G ports based module.
*Currentl Solution : *we want to connect the IBM Blade Switches (4) as
demonstrated in the attached diagram which will be connected
to Nexus 2k module as Ether-channel Access port.
Initially we been proposed by our vendor with this design and Now vendor is
recommending us to connect the Blade switch etiher to
Nexus 5k switch or directly to 6513 core-switches instead of Nexus 2k
modules as they say Nexus 2k modules are only to connect
the Edge devices .
We do not have ports available on Nexus 5010 to connect the cables from IBM
Blade Centre Switches.
Otherthan that, incase if we go ahead and connect the IBM Blade switches as
access ether-channel access port with Nexus 2k module
what are the consequences we have to face realted Spanning tree or any
other.
Request you to please give your valuable comments at the earliest!
