Campus Fabric Configuration Guidelines
Consider the following guidelines and limitations when configuring campus fabric elements:
•
Configure no more than 3 control-plane devices in each fabric domain.
•
Configure no more than 2 border devices in each fabric domain.
•
Each fabric edge device supports up to 2000 endpoints.
•
Each control-plane device supports up to 5000 fabric edge device registrations.
•
Configure no more than 32 virtual contexts in each fabric domain.
•
Ensure that you use 10-Gigabit-Ethernet supervisor uplinks when configuring underlay
connectivity.
Limitations and Restrictions
•
You can configure Cisco Catalyst 4500-E series switches as edge devices only.
•
Campus Fabric is not supported in Virtual Switching System (VSS) mode and in VSS wireless
mode.
•
Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) encapsulation is supported on the Supervisor uplink modules
only. Ensure that you use supervisor uplink modules for underlay connections between fabric
elements.
•
Campus Fabric is supported only on Cisco Catalyst 4500-E series switches, on Supervisor Engine
8-E.
•
IPv6 hosts are not supported in the fabric domain.
•
Policy-based routing (PBR) and Web Cache Communication Protocol (WCCP) are not supported
within the fabric domain.
•
Cisco TrustSec SGT Exchange Protocol (SXP) cannot be used to propagate SGTs across devices
within the fabric domain.
•
On the edge device, Cisco TrustSec links are not supported only on uplink interfaces connected to
the underlay.
•
Layer 3 source group tags cannot be applied to uplink interfaces connected to the underlay.
