Fabric Modules

Cisco Nexus 7000 Series switches support up to five fabric modules in the chassis. Each chassis has its
own type of fabric module as follows:
•

•
The Cisco Nexus 7004 switch does not include fabric modules.
Note
You can replace a Fabric 1 module with a Fabric 2 module in the Cisco Nexus 7010 and 7018 switches
Note
during operations, but while there is a mix of fabric module types, all of the fabric modules perform as
Fabric 1 modules. If you power up a switch with two types of fabric modules installed, only the Fabric
1 modules will power up. To utilize the Fabric 2 module capabilities, all of the installed fabric modules
must be Fabric 2 modules.
Verifying the Status of a Module
Before you begin configuring the switch, you need to ensure that the modules in the chassis are
functioning as designed. To verify the status of all modules, enter the show module command. To verify
the status of a supervisor or I/O module, enter the show module slot_number command. To verify the
status of a fabric module, enter the show module xbar slot_number command. The interfaces in each
module are ready to be configured when the ok status is displayed in the show module command output.

Cisco Nexus 7009 chassis uses the Fabric 2 (N7K-C7009-FAB-2) modules.
Cisco Nexus 7010 chassis uses the Fabric 1 (N7K-C7010-FAB-1) or Fabric 2 (N7K-C7010-FAB-2)
modules.
Cisco Nexus 7018 chassis uses the Fabric 1 (N7K-C7018-FAB-1) or Fabric 2 (N7K-C7018-FAB-2)
modules.
