Network World Independent Test Summary

Zero Packet Loss when Upgrading and Downgrading the software image - ISSU

Zero Packet Loss when removing Fabric Cards

Zero Packet Loss when killing and restarting OSPF

http://www.networkworld.com/reviews/2008/090108-test-cisco-switch.html

Test Conditions: Nexus 7000 I/O modules load balance all of the traffic across all

5 Fabric Cards. The test was performed with 51,200 OSPF routes, 256 OSPF

neighbors (one on each 10GbE port), every packet going through a security ACL of

7000 lines, every packet being rewritten using a 500 line QOS ACL, each line cards

was doing 48 Mpps lookup, and Cisco Netflow to track up to 512,000 flows . (See

“How we did it” in the Article)

VN-Link Brings VM Level Granularity

Problems:

VN-Link:

•Extends network to the VM

•Consistent services

•Coordinated, coherent

management

VMotion

• VMotion may move VMs

across physical ports—policy

must follow

• Impossible to view or apply

policy to locally switched

traffic• Cannot correlate traffic on

physical links—from multiple

VMsVLAN101

Over the past 10 years• More cores, more memory

• Proliferation of servers & switches

• More switches per server

• Management applied, not integrated

An “accidental” architecture• Evolved by default vs planned design

Result: Complexity• Many points of management

• Difficult to maintain policy coherence

• Difficult to secure

• Difficult to scale

Increasing Momentum > 100% Growth

Since its initial launch in spring of 2009, Cisco UCS has been validated with industry awards

UCS Customers 400+ … Feb2010John Chambers, Cisco's chief executive officer and chairman -

Cisco exited the markets and confirmed Cisco had 400 new

UCS customers, which is more than 100% growth in customers

in 2010 first quarter.

Market Traction• Goldman Sachs survey of 100 Fortune 1000 IT executives

expect increased presence for Cisco servers in their data

centers in the next two to three years.
