14 The number of Fabric Extenders is limited by the total number hosts connected through the single homed Fabric Extenders to the parent Cisco Nexus 5000
Series switch. This applies both in the case where the parent switch is running vPC or not.
15 The number of Fabric Extenders is limited by the total number hosts connected through dual homed Fabric Extenders to a pair of Cisco Nexus 5000 Series
switches running vPC. In dual homed Fabric Extender vPC mode, the Fabric Extenders provide a redundant network path to the hosts in case of a direct failure
in the primary path.
16 The limit of 480 applies equally to single homed and dual homed Fabric Extender topologies. In single homed topologies, the maximum number of Fabric
Extenders is 12 which implies up to 40 hosts may be connected to each Fabric Extender for a total of 480 hosts per Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switch. In a dual
homed Fabric Extender topology, the total number of hosts supported is also 480.
17 1,000 entries are reserved multicast MAC addresses and the remainder are for unicast MAC addresses.
18 The switch is capable of up to 50 different destinations but this is not currently implemented.
