Servers utilizing active/standby teaming, 802.3ad port channels, or other host-based link redundancy
mechanisms can be connected to Fabric Extender host interfaces.
Any device running spanning tree connected to a Fabric Extender host interface results in that host
interface being placed in an error-disabled state when a BPDU is received.
Any edge switch that leverages a link redundancy mechanism not dependent on spanning tree such as
Cisco FlexLink or vPC (with the BPDU Filter enabled) can be connected to a Fabric Extender host
interface. Because spanning tree is not used to eliminate loops, you should ensure a loop-free topology
below the Fabric Extender host interfaces.
Ingress and egress packet counters are provided on each host interface.
For more information about BPDU Guard, see the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Layer 2 Switching
Configuration Guide.
Host Interface Port Channels
Layer 3 Host Interface Port Channels
The Fabric Extender supports host interface port channel configurations. You can combine up to 8 interfaces
in a standard mode port channel and 16 interfaces when configured with the Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP).
Port channel resources are allocated when the port channel has one or more members.Note
All members of the port channel must be Fabric Extender host interfaces and all host interfaces must be from
the same Fabric Extender. You cannot mix interfaces from the Fabric Extender and the parent switch.
Layer 3 mode is supported on host interface port channels.
A host interface port channel also supports subinterfaces. You can create up to 1000 subinterfaces on a Fabric
Extender host interface port channel.
For more information about port channels, see the Cisco Nexus 7000 Series NX-OS Interfaces Configuration
Guide.
Layer 2 Host Interface Port Channels
The Fabric Extender supports host interface port channel configurations. You can combine up to 8 interfaces
in a standard mode port channel and 16 interfaces when configured with the Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP).
Port channel resources are allocated when the port channel has one or more members.Note
All members of the port channel must be Fabric Extender host interfaces and all host interfaces must be from
the same Fabric Extender. You cannot mix interfaces from the Fabric Extender and the parent switch.
Layer 2 mode is supported on host interface port channels.
