Overview
The Cisco Edel Layer 3 License for the Nexus 6001 platform (part number L-N6001-LAN1K9) unlocks advanced routing capabilities on a high-performance data center switch. Designed for enterprise and service provider environments, this license enables full Layer 3 functionality, including dynamic routing protocols, IP services, and scalable virtual networking, allowing you to consolidate both switching and routing into a single chassis.
Key Features
- Enables OSPF, EIGRP, BGP, IS-IS and static routing on Nexus 6001
- Supports IPv4 and IPv6 routing with multicast extensions
- Integrates seamlessly with existing Cisco NX-OS software image
- Allows creation of virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instances for traffic segmentation
- Provides high availability with fast convergence and graceful restart support
- Optimized for low latency and high throughput in dense data center fabrics
Technical Specifications
- Compatible hardware: Cisco Nexus 6001 chassis only
- Software requirement: NX-OS release that supports the Edel license (check Cisco compatibility matrix)
- License type: Perpetual, non-transferable
- Activation method: License manager CLI or Cisco Smart Licensing portal
- Performance impact: Enables full Layer 3 forwarding at line rate up to 10 Tbps aggregate bandwidth
- Power consumption: No additional power draw beyond the base chassis specifications
Typical Applications
- Core and aggregation layers in large data center networks where routing and switching convergence is critical
- Multi-tenant environments that require VRF isolation for different customers or business units
- High performance compute clusters needing low latency IP routing between racks
- Service provider edge deployments that need BGP peering with external networks
- Enterprise campuses consolidating distribution switches and routers into a single platform
By adding the Edel Layer 3 License to your Nexus 6001, you gain the flexibility to design more efficient network topologies, reduce hardware sprawl, and simplify management while maintaining the performance standards expected from Cisco data center solutions.
