Cisco ENCS
The Cisco 5100 and 5400 Series Enterprise Network Compute System combines routing, switching, storage, processing, and a host
of other computing and networking activities into a compact one Rack Unit (RU) box. This high-performance unit achieves this
goal by providing the infrastructure to deploy virtualized network functions and acting as a server that addresses processing,
workload, and storage challenges.
Cisco UCS C220
M4 Rack Server
The Cisco UCS C220 M4 Rack Server is a high-density, general-purpose enterprise infrastructure and application server that
delivers world class performance for a wide range of enterprise workloads, including virtualization, collaboration, and bare-metal
applications.
Cisco CSP 2100
Cisco Cloud Services Platform 2100 (Cisco CSP 2100) is a software and hardware platform for data center network functions
virtualization. This open kernel virtual machine (KVM) platform, with Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7.3 as the base operating
system, is designed to host networking virtual services. Cisco CSP 2100 enables network, security, and load balancer teams
to quickly deploy any Cisco or third-party network virtual service.
Note |
Return Material Authorization (RMA) capability for CSP 2100 is not supported when in use with NFVIS.

Cisco UCS
E-Series Server Modules
The Cisco UCS
E-Series Servers (E-Series Servers) are the next generation of Cisco UCS
Express servers. E-Series Servers are a family of size, weight, and power
efficient blade servers that are housed within the Generation 2 Cisco
Integrated Services Routers (ISR G2), Cisco 4400, and Cisco 4300 Series
Integrated Services Routers. These servers provide a general-purpose compute
platform for branch office applications deployed either as bare metal on
operating systems, such as Microsoft Windows or Linux; or as virtual machines
on hypervisors.
Supported VMs
Currently, the following Cisco supplied VMs and third party VMs are supported:
