It acts pretty much just like a regular container, the only main difference I ran into was a chvrf command, which allows you to change your current VRF.

Guest shell is a Linux container with CentOS 7 running on top of underlying OS. And I unfortunately don’t have one to test it out. The documentation about Nexus 7K is a bit confusing so I can’t tell for sure whether bash or guest shell are available for it. There are 2 main ways you can access Linux on Cisco Nexus 9K and 3K: 1) guest shell and 2) run bash. It has changed in recent versions though and now you can have all the power of Linux, if you wanted it of course. Cisco Nexus switches are running Linux under the hood for a while, but until Nexus 9K and updated code for Nexus 3K it was not easily accessible.
