If you use the Cisco Card NIC mode, you must also make a VIC Slot setting that matches where your
VIC is installed. The options are Riser1, Riser2, and Flex-LOM. See
Settings, on page 30

This VIC supports 10/25-Gigabit with the following restrictions:
• All ports must have the same speed.
• Port 1 and port 2 is one pair, corresponding to eth2-1 on APIC. Port 3 and port 4 is another pair,
corresponding to eth2-2 on APIC. Only one connection is allowed for each pair. For example, you
can connect one cable to either port 1 or port 2, and you can connect another one cable to either
port 3 or port 4. Do not connect two cables on any pair.
• APIC-PCIE-IQ10GC or UCSC-PCIE-IQ10GC should always be installed in PCIE slot 1 for APIC
M4/L4.
• APIC-PCIE-IQ10GC or UCSC-PCIE-IQ10GC can use any ports or any pair of ports to connect to
a leaf node.
• From Release 4.2(5) the UCSC-PCIE-IQ10GC Intel X710 Quad Port 10GBase-T network interface
card is supported for 10GBast-T connectivity to Cisco ACI leaf nodes.
