Explanation:
The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series provides Layer 2 switching, advanced networking functions, and a common network management model in a virtualized server environment by replacing the virtual switch in VMware vSphere. The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series manages a data center as defined in VMware vCenter Server. Each server in the data center is represented as a line card in the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch and can be managed as if it were a line card in a physical Cisco switch.
The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series implementation has two main components:
Virtual supervisor module (VSM)
Virtual Ethernet module (VEM)
These two components together make up the Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch, with the VSM providing the management plane and the VEM providing the data plane
