Information About Layer 2 Ethernet Switching
The Cisco Nexus1000V is a distributed Layer 2 virtual switch that extends across many virtualized hosts.
It consists of two components:
•
The Virtual Supervisor Module (VSM), which is also known as the control plane (CP). The VSM
acts as the supervisor and contains the Cisco CLI, configuration, and high-level features.
•
The Virtual Ethernet Module (VEM), which is also known as the data plane (DP). The VEM acts as
a line card and runs in each virtualized server to handle packet forwarding and other localized
functions.
