The Cisco Nexus 92160YC-X Switch (Figure 2) is a 1-Rack-Unit (1RU) switch that supports 3.2 Terabits per second (Tbps) of bandwidth and over 2.5 billion packets per second (bpps). The 48-port downlink ports on the 92160YC-X can be configured to work as either 1/10/25-Gbps ports, offering deployment flexibility and investment protection. The uplink can support up to four 100-Gbps OR up to six 40-Gbps ports, or a combination of 10-, 25-, 40-, and 100-Gbps connectivity, offering flexible migration options. The switch has FC-FEC enabled for 25Gbps, and supports up to 3m in DAC connectivity. Please check Cisco Optics Matrix for the most updated support.

The Cisco Nexus 92348GC-X and the 92160YC-X can collect comprehensive Cisco Tetration Analytics telemetry information at line rateacross all ports without adding any latency to the packets or negatively affecting switch performance. This telemetry information is exported every 100 milliseconds (ms) by default directly from the switch’s Application- Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC).
This information consists of three types of data:

● Flow information: This information contains information about endpoints, protocols, ports, when the flow started, how long the flow was active, etc.
● Interpacket variation: This information captures any interpacket variations within the flow. Examples include variation in Time
To Live (TTL), IP and TCP flags, payload length, etc.
● Context details: Context information is derived outside the packet header, including variation in buffer utilization, packet drops within a flow, association with tunnel endpoints, etc.

The Cisco Tetration Analytics platform consumes this telemetry data, and by using unsupervised machine learning and behavior analysis it can provide outstanding pervasive visibility across everything in your data center in real time. By using algorithmic approaches, the Cisco Tetration Analytics platform provides deep insights into applications and interactions, enabling dramatically simplified operations, a zero-trust model, and migration of applications to any programmable infrastructure.

The Cisco Nexus 9200 platform provides the following features and benefits:

● High performance and scalability
◦ The platform provides wire-rate Layer 2 and 3 switching on all ports, with up to 7.2 Tbps and up to 5.35 bpps of bandwidth.
◦ With up to 40 MB of shared buffer, the platform is an excellent choice for scalable data centers and big data applications. The ability to fine tune buffer allocation for non-drop queues makes the Nexus 9200 an ideal platform for IP storage designs.
● Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN)
◦ The platform (except Cisco Nexus 92348GC-X and Cisco Nexus 92348GC-FX3 ) offers native line-rate VXLAN routing.
◦ The Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) Ethernet Virtual Private Network (EVPN) control plane provides scalable multitenancy and host mobility (refer to VXLAN Network with MP-BGP EVPN Control Plane for more information).
● Hardware and software high availability
◦ The 64-way Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP) routing enables the use of Layer 3 fat-tree designs. This feature helps organizations prevent network bottlenecks, increase resiliency, and add capacity with little network disruption.
◦ Patching ensures undisruptive upgrade in most cases.
◦ The switches use hot-swappable Power-Supply Units (PSUs) and fans with N+1 redundancy.
● Purpose-built NX-OS operating system with comprehensive, proven innovations
◦ Open programmability supports built-in DevOps automation tools such as Puppet, Chef, and Ansible.
◦ Cisco NX-API supports a common programmatic approach across Cisco Nexus switches.
◦ Power-on autoprovisioning (POAP) enables touchless bootup and configuration of the switch, drastically reducing provisioning time.
◦ The onboard Python scripting engine enables automation and remote operations in the data center.
◦ Advanced buffer monitoring reports real-time buffer utilization per port and per queue, which allows organizations to monitor traffic bursts and application traffic patterns.
◦ Complete Layer 3 unicast and multicast routing protocol suites are supported, including BGP, Open Shortest Path First (OSPF),Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), Routing Information Protocol Version 2 (RIPv2), Protocol Independent Multicast Sparse Mode (PIM-SM), Source-Specific Multicast (SSM), and Multicast Source Discovery Protocol (MSDP).
◦ Segment routing allows the network to forward Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) packets and perform traffic engineering without Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) Traffic Engineering (TE). It provides a control-plane alternative for increased network scalability and virtualization.
The Cisco Nexus 9200 platform offers industry-leading density and performance with flexible port configurations that can support existing fiber cabling (Table 2).
