FAQs

Q: What is included in the N3K-C3064-X-FD-L3 bundle?
A: This SKU includes the Cisco Nexus 3064-X hardware with forward airflow (port-side exhaust), dual DC power supplies, Base NX-OS license, and LAN Enterprise license for advanced Layer 3 routing capabilities.

Q: What routing protocols are supported with the LAN Enterprise license?
A: The LAN Enterprise license enables full Layer 3 unicast and multicast routing protocols including BGP, OSPF, EIGRP, RIPv2, PIM-SM, SSM, and MSDP, along with advanced features like policy-based routing and virtual PortChannel.

Q: Can the QSFP+ ports operate in different modes?
A: Yes, each of the four QSFP+ ports can operate in native 40 Gigabit Ethernet mode or be broken out into 4x10 Gigabit Ethernet ports using splitter cables, providing flexible uplink and connectivity options.

Q: What deployment scenarios is this switch designed for?
A: The Nexus 3064-X is optimized for data center top-of-rack deployments, high-frequency trading environments requiring ultra-low latency, cloud infrastructure, and big data applications where line-rate Layer 3 performance is critical.

Q: Does this switch support stacking or modular expansion?
A: The Nexus 3064-X is a fixed-configuration switch and does not support traditional stacking. However, it supports Virtual PortChannel (vPC) technology for Layer 2 multipathing and high availability without Spanning Tree Protocol limitations.
