Chapter 1 Installing the Cisco Nexus 1000V for Microsoft Hyper-V
Installing the VSM Software
This script simplifies the approach, as it helps you to refresh the VSEM and make the necessary
associations.
To demonstrate this, we will create a new VM network (eg. VMNetworkB), a new port classification (eg.
Veth-policy-new), and new uplink network (eg. NexusUplink-New) on the Cisco VSM.
Note The following were already created on Cisco VSM as shown in Deploy-Nexus1000V-VSEM.ps1.
• Existing VM network (VMNetworkA)
• existing port classification (Veth-policy)
• existing uplink network (NexusUplink)
Below is a sample run :-
PS C:\Program Files\Cisco\Nexus1000V\Scripts\VMMConfig> .\Refresh-Nexus1000V-VSEM.ps1
-VsmIP 10.105.234.211 -LogicalSwitch Nexus-Logical-Switch
