Datacenter : CLI Command Reference for Cisco Nexus 7000
Datacenter : CLI Command Reference for Cisco Nexus 7000
Today I am going to talk about the CLI commands used in the Cisco Nexus 7K which helps you guys to troubleshoot in case of any issue. You can use these commands on Cisco Nexus 7K in order to get the appropriate results from the chassis.
These commands are very helpful and prepared by one of the Datacenter expert and help you to guide in any situation. The commands showing below are for various purposes which includes Counters/STP troubleshooting, Checking Hardware issues, ISSU troubleshooting, Bootup Issues, Startup Issues and many more.
Lets see all these commands one by one. Check all these commands to get the desired output on your lab network. Below is the basic Cisco Nexus 7K topology with Nexus 5K, FEX and UCS Servers and FI.
