Cisco Nexus with vSšhere Enterpise?

[biokovo]

Is it possible install Cisco Nexus on vSphere4 with Enteprise licence?

I heard that it must be Enterpise Plus

Thanks

Only enterprise Plus supports Distributed Switches, required by the Cisco Nexus software. As per KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1010579.

Because you need the Distributed Switch functionality , you must use Enterprise Plus licensing.

yes you will need enterprise plus.

Thanks to all. One more question please. When or where (what kind of enviroment) is Cisco Nexus something we may need to have?

Thanks

The virtual Nexus v1000 extends the Cisco functionalities inside the Virtual Network environment. Beside all Cisco advantages over the standard vSwitches, this allows your networking team to administrate it without the need to touch the VMware product.
