Cisco Nexus 5010 Switch

The Cisco Nexus 5010 is a 28-port switch. It is a 1RU, 10-Gigabit Ethernet, Cisco Data Center Ethernet,
FCoE, and Fibre Channel switch providing more than 500-Gbps throughput with very low latency. It has
the following features:

New and Changed Features in Cisco NX-OS Release
4.0(1a)N1(1a)
The new or changed features for this release are described in the following topics:
•
•
•
The shutdown lan Command
The DCBX protocol provides a capability to signal LAN Logical Link Status (LLS) to a CNA that is
connected to the Cisco Nexus 5000 switch over an Ethernet interface. This signaling can be used by the
bonding driver in the host to perform a failover to the standby link to the LAN.
The shutdown lan command provides the LAN administrator with the capability to trigger an
LLS-Down to the CNA. This operation can be performed without any impact to the SAN traffic on the
Ethernet interface. When the shutdown lan command is configured on an Ethernet interface, all VLANs
that are not enabled for FCoE are brought down on the interface. This in turn triggers the LLS-Down
signal. If non-FCoE VLANs are brought down by other means (like vlan shutdown) they trigger
LLS-Down signaling if the only VLANs active on an Ethernet interface are enabled for FCoE.
