Figure 20. Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Topology Compatible with ISSU
Note: At the time of this writing, ISSU is not compatible with the Layer 3 switching features on the Cisco Nexus
5500 platform. Therefore, the Layer 3 license must not be installed is you want to perform Layer 2 ISSU.

Design Considerations for Cisco Nexus 2000 Series
The Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extenders are ToR satellites of the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches.
The Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extenders can be attached to Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches and are
operated by the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches as line cards. A fabric extender operates as a remote I/O
module of the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switch. The fabric extender can be considered a server access-layer
multiplexer. It is fully managed by the Cisco Nexus 5000 Series, and packets are sent to the Cisco Nexus 5000
Series for forwarding and policy enforcement.
Complete configuration and troubleshooting for the Cisco Nexus 2000 Series is beyond the scope of this chapter;
however, because of the innovativeness of the fabric extender technology, this section discusses some basic
configuration concepts.
