## Question

Which component of a Cisco Nexus 1000V Series switch is responsible for propagating configurations to virtual switches?

## Correct Answer

_See scenario._

## Explanation

Product Architecture -
The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series Switch has two major components (Figure 1): the virtual Ethernet module (VEM), which runs inside the hypervisor, and the virtual supervisor module (VSM), which manages the VEMs.

Virtual Supervisor Module -
The Cisco Nexus 1000V Series VSM controls multiple VEMs as one logical modular distributed virtual switch. Configuration is performed through the VSM and is automatically propagated to the VEMs.
