The F2/F2e module is 12 groups of four. The ports will be in sequence (1–4, 5–8, and so
on). The F2 module will operate only in a VDC or chassis with other F2 modules. So you
could have a chassis composed of only F2 modules in the default VDC and not need the
advanced license, or you could have F2 modules in their own VDC in a chassis with other
M1/M2 or F1 modules in their own VDC. The F2/F2e module will provide for 550 Gbps of
Fabric bandwidth with the Fabric-2 modules, and provide line-rate L2/L3 performance.

The M2 modules can operate in a VDC or a chassis with M1/F1.
VDC Interface Allocation
Depending on the hardware modules installed in the Nexus 7000 chassis, the interface
allocation can vary. The following sections provide the details for each hardware module
and port-allocation VDC allocation.
