Virtual Port Channel Connection
vPCs allow links that are physically connected to two different Cisco Nexus switches to form a Port Channel to a
downstream device. The downstream device can be a switch, a server, or any other networking device that
supports IEEE 802.3ad Port Channels. vPC technology enables networks to be designed with multiple links for
redundancy while also allowing those links to connect to different endpoints for added resiliency (Figure 5).
