UCS Port Licensing with 2K Fabric Extenders

jaleach

Level 1

A FEX like a 2232 can be added to UCS to provide additional ports for connecting C-series servers.  Do you still only license the ports used on the Fabric Interconnects - ie, I add a 2232 using 2x10GE uplinks to each FI, I gain 32 10GE connections for servers, but only use two port licenses on the FI?

Thanks,

J

Correct ! just be aware of the following caveat

Maximum Configurable vNICs/vHBAs Based on Number of FEX Uplinks
