Configure the Upstream Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switch
The example presented here assumes that network connectivity option 3 is used with the Cisco Nexus 1100
Series. This example configures the two physical LOM interfaces on the Cisco Nexus 1100 Series to carry
management traffic as an active-standby pair, and it configures a PortChannel on two of the four 1 Gigabit Ethernet
Interfaces for control, packet, and data traffic. The PortChannels will allow only the necessary VLANs for the
environment. The configuration on the upstream Cisco Nexus 5548P Switch is shown here.
