Feature Set

Feature-set configuration installs and enables NX-OS feature-sets that extend device capabilities beyond the base software image. Each feature-set maps to the CLI install feature-set <name> and feature-set <name> commands. Available feature-sets include FEX (Fabric Extender), MPLS, and virtualization. Feature-sets must be installed and enabled before their associated functionality can be configured.

Examples

Example 1: Enabling FEX and MPLS feature-sets

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: AGGR1
      configuration:
        feature_set:
          fex: true
          mpls: true

Example 2: Enabling virtualization feature-set

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: VPC-LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature_set:
          virtualization: true
