VSM to VEM Communications
VM VM VM VM
Nexus 1000V VSM
On Nexus 100
L2 Network
Control VLAN
• Extend the usual backplane of the switch
over the network
• Carries low level messages to ensure proper
configuration of the VEM.
• Maintains a 1 sec heartbeat with the VSM to
the VEM (timeout of 6 seconds)
• Maintains syncronization between primary
and secondary VSMs
Packet VLAN
For control plane processing like CDP, IGMP
snooping, or stat collections like SNMP,
Netflow
Control VLAN
Packet VLAN
Two virtual interfaces are used to communicate between the
VSM and VEM

Layer 2 connectivity of the VSM and VEM
VM VM VM VM
L2 Network
Control VLAN
Packet VLAN
§ For L2 deployment, Control and Packet
VLAN needs to be configured end to end
to allow communication between the
VSM and the VEM
If those VLANs are not configured end to
end the VEM will not show up even if it
looks like it is in vCenter
Control VLAN and Packet VLAN needs to
be configured as system VLAN on the
uplink port-profile
Can use 1 or 2 VLANs for Control/Packet
trafficNexus 1000V VSM

Layer 3 connectivity of the VSM and VEM
VM VM VM VM
L3 Network
For L3 Control, L2 adjacency for
Control and Packet not required
VSM uses a svs mode type layer 3 using either
the control0 Interface or the mgmt0 interface
User can specify an IP address for control0 to use a
separate network for VEM – VSM communication
svs-domain
svs mode L3 interface (control0 | mgmt0)

Nexus 1010 Network Integration Design
There are 4 uplink options to connect the Nexus 1010 to the
Network
This will influence how the control, packet, management and
data information will be connected to rest of the network

VSM VSB Installation Steps on Nexus
1010
§ Create VSM as VSB on N1010
§ Register certificate as plug-in in vCenter
§ Define ethernet and vethernet port-profile
