   Question is ambiguous, imho.
   5548 and 596 require a daughter card, afaict:

   (search in page for “layer 3”, first hit)

   Answer: D and F

   D) “The Cisco Nexus 5020 Switch is a two rack-unit (2RU), 10 Gigabit Ethernet/FCoE access-layer switch built to provide 1.04 terabits per second (Tbps) throughput with very low latency” —> ACCESS-LAYER (L2)

   Nexus 5548 and 5596 can do Layer 3 Routing with the addition of the daughter card…

   Nexus 7K is Layer2/3 by nature…
