Cisco NX-OS Software Overview
Cisco NX-OS is a data center-class operating system built with modularity, resiliency, and serviceability at its foundation. Cisco NX-OS helps ensure continuous availability and sets the standard for mission-critical data center environments. The self-healing and highly modular design of Cisco NX-OS makes zero-impact operations a reality and enables exceptional operation flexibility.
Focused on the requirements of the data center, Cisco NX-OS provides a robust and comprehensive feature set that meets the networking requirements of present and future data centers. With an XML interface and a command-line interface (CLI) like that of Cisco IOS® Software, Cisco NX-OS provides state-of-the-art implementations of relevant networking standards as well as a variety of true data center-class Cisco innovations.
Cisco NX-OS Software Benefits
Table 2 summarizes the benefits that Cisco NX-OS offers.
Table 2. Benefits of Cisco NX-OS Software
| Feature | Benefit |
| Common software throughout the data center: Cisco NX-OS runs on all Cisco data center switch platforms: Cisco Nexus 7000, 5000, 4000, 3000, 2000, and 1000V Series. | ● Simplification of data center operating environment
● End-to-end Cisco Nexus and Cisco NX-OS fabric ● No retraining necessary for data center engineering and operations teams |
| Software compatibility: Cisco NX-OS interoperates with Cisco products running any variant of Cisco IOS Software and also with any networking OS that conforms to the networking standards listed as supported in this data sheet. | ● Transparent operation with existing network infrastructure
● Open standards ● No compatibility concerns |
| Modular software design: Cisco NX-OS is designed to support distributed multithreaded processing. Cisco NX-OS modular processes are instantiated on demand, each in a separate protected memory space. Thus, processes are started and system resources allocated only when a feature is enabled. The modular processes are governed by a real-time preemptive scheduler that helps ensure timely processing of critical functions. | ● Robust software
● Fault tolerance ● Increased scalability ● Increased network availability |
| Troubleshooting and diagnostics: Cisco NX-OS is built with unique serviceability functions to enable network operators to take early action based on network trends and events, enhancing network planning and improving network operations center (NOC) and vendor response times. Cisco Smart Call Home and Cisco Online Health Management System (OHMS) are some of the features that enhance the serviceability of Cisco NX-OS. | ● Quick problem isolation and resolution
● Continuous system monitoring and proactive notifications ● Improved productivity of operations teams |
| Ease of management: Cisco NX-OS provides a programmatic XML interface based on the NETCONF industry standard. The Cisco NX-OS XML interface provides a consistent API for devices. Cisco NX-OS also supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Versions 1, 2, and 3 MIBs. | ● Rapid development and creation of tools for enhanced management
● Comprehensive SNMP MIB support for efficient remote monitoring |
| Using the Cisco Nexus Data Broker software and Cisco Plug-in for OpenFlow agent, the Cisco Nexus 3048 Switch can be used to build a scalable, cost-effective, and programmable tap or SPAN aggregation infrastructure. This approach replaces the traditional purpose-built matrix switches with these switches. You can interconnect these switches to build a multilayer topology for tap or SPAN aggregation infrastructure. | ● Scalable and cost effective
● Robust traffic filtering capabilities ● Traffic aggregation from multiple input ports across different switches ● Traffic replication and forwarding to multiple monitoring tools |
| Role-based access control (RBAC): With RBAC, Cisco NX-OS enables administrators to limit access to switch operations by assigning roles to users. Administrators can customize access and restrict it to the users who require it. | ● Tight access control mechanism based on user roles
● Improved network device security ● Reduction in network problems arising from human errors |
Cisco NX-OS Software Packages for Cisco Nexus 3048
The Cisco NX-OS Software package for the Cisco Nexus 3048 offers flexibility and a comprehensive feature set along with consistency with Cisco Nexus access switches. The default system software has a comprehensive Layer 2 feature set with extensive security and management features. To enable Layer 3 IP unicast and multicast routing functions, additional licenses need to be installed. Table 3 lists the software licensing details.

* The Base license (N3K-C3048-BAS1K9) is required to take advantage of LAN Enterprise license (N3K-C3048-LAN1K9) features. Table 5 later in this document provides a complete feature list.
Cisco Data Center Network Manager
The Cisco Nexus 3048 is supported in Cisco DCNM. Cisco DCNM is designed for hardware platforms enabled for Cisco NX-OS, which consist of the Cisco Nexus Family of products. Cisco DCNM is a Cisco management solution that increases overall data center infrastructure uptime and reliability, hence improving business continuity. Focused on the management requirements of the data center network, Cisco DCNM provides a robust framework and comprehensive feature set that meets the routing, switching, and storage administration needs of present and future data centers. In particular, Cisco DCNM automates the provisioning process, proactively monitors the LAN by detecting performance degradation, secures the network, and streamlines the diagnosis of dysfunctional network elements.
Cisco Nexus Data Broker
The Cisco Nexus 3048 Switch with Cisco Nexus Data Broker can be used to build a scalable and cost-effective traffic monitoring infrastructure using network taps and SPAN. This approach replaces the traditional purpose-built matrix switches with one or more OpenFlow-enabled Cisco Nexus switches. You can interconnect these switches to build a scalable tap or SPAN aggregation infrastructure. You also can combine tap and SPAN sources to bring the copy of the production traffic to this tap or SPAN aggregation infrastructure. In addition, you can distribute these sources and traffic monitoring and analysis tools across multiple Cisco Nexus switches. For more details, visit http://www.cisco.com/go/nexusdatabroker.
