Vacl on Nexus 3064

[s-pirrello]

Hi,

Does anyone know if one can use a Vacl to monitor network traffic on a nexus 3064 much like you can on the 6500s?  If so, any  performance tradeoffs or caveats to be aware of?

Hello,

You can configure VACL in the Nexus3k, Please see below the command reference :

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus3000/sw/command/reference/5_0_3/security_cmd_ref.html#wpxref48624

There isn't much open caveats on this. Switch on Chip architechture pretty much does everything without affecting the cpu.

Below link shows you the technology that it supports,

Does anyone know whether Nexus 3064 E and X have any limitation of how many VACL session can be created ? I'm hearing only one, but if someone can confirm it would be really helpful.

thanks,
