Hi,

Nutanix box is connected to 10G Brocade VDX6720 & customer network is running on 1G Cisco 2960 X series switch. Is it possible to connect these two switches to give access to Customer of Nutanix box?

Hello,

I'm not familiar with those switches but as long as they both have open SFP or copper ports that you can physically connect them it should work fine. Then you need to configure any VLANs and routing to make sure they talk properly.
