This free tech tip was brought to you by SpeakGeekToMe.com Some time in the recent past the Cisco Nexus Titanium Emulator was leaked to the internet and as you can imagine it popped up all over the internet. It is as easy as doing a simple Google search to find and download your very own copy to this software. The Cisco Nexus Titanium Emulator is just that it is an emulator of a Nexus 7000 series switch, and will allow you to get your fingers wet on using the Nexus Operating System (NX-OS). The emulator does not have every function that a real Cisco Nexus switch will have, but it is functioning and is good at getting you started in learning the NX-OS system. I have just begun to play with the emulator and in my first few min of playing I have found that it does not allow the creation of VDCs or vCPs. I’m assuming that since the emulator is a virtual version of the real thing, and trying to create a virtual 7K (VDC) inside an already virtual device is not supported.

Would be cool to do VDCs and have nested virtual devices. I do not see the LACP protocol on the emulator so that would mean I can’t create vCPs. But as I said I just started playing with the Cisco Nexus Emulator so there might be a way to perform the function and I have not found them yet.
