Re: Cisco VIRL (ASAv & L2)

Som,

My understanding is that FabricPath is supported but vPC (and most L2
features) are not at this time. The VIRL dev team is encouraging everyone to
clamor for this so that pressure builds to support it. The VIRL dev team is
dependent upon the various business units to produce images for inclusion into
VIRL - they donbt create that stuff themselves from scratch. Thus far,
apparently, the NX-OS team hasnbt come forward with much (other than a very
RAM-hungry image with quite limited functionality).
