Nxos Titanium 7.1.0.3 | Cisco

# Typical features for lab testing feature telnet feature scp-server feature ospf feature bgp feature pim feature lacp feature vpc feature vrrp feature hsrp vlan 10,20,30 interface Vlan10 ip address 10.0.0.1/24 no shutdown 5. Working Around Limitations | Real Hardware Behavior | Titanium Behavior | Workaround | |------------------------|------------------|-------------| | Forwards packets | No data-plane forwarding | Only test routing tables, ACLs, configs | | Layer 2 switching | Logical MAC learning, no actual switching | Ping between two VMs connected to same VLAN will not work | | VPC peer-link | Configurable, but no real sync | Use for config validation only | | NetFlow/Sampler | Partially works | Use only for parser checks | | Layer 3 forwarding | Routes installed in FIB (simulated) | Use show ip route , show forwarding distribution | 6. Useful CLI Commands (Titanium-specific) # Check version – confirms Titanium show version | include Titanium See simulated modules show module Check CPU/memory (Linux top inside VM) show system resources Verify feature compatibility show feature Simulated forwarding table show forwarding ip unicast Logging – similar to real NX-OS show logging logfile debug logfile 7. Common Issues & Fixes | Issue | Likely Cause | Solution | |-------|--------------|----------| | VM hangs on boot | Insufficient RAM | Increase to 6+ GB | | Feature not supported | Feature needs data-plane | Use real hardware or CSR1000v for L3 tests | | SSH fails to start | Missing RSA key | ssh key rsa 2048 + copy running-config startup-config | | No ping across VLANs | Expected behavior | Test routing table correctness instead | | Clock/time wrong | No NTP in some builds | Manually set clock set 12:00:00 Jan 1 2026 | 8. Sample Lab Topology Using Titanium 7.1.0.3 [Management PC] --- (SSH) --- mgmt0 (192.168.1.100) [LabN7K] | (simulated) | e1/1 (VLAN 10) ---- logically connects to nowhere Use case: Test OSPF configuration with another Titanium or real router (routing updates work, pings fail).
