Configuring a vPC
The high-level steps for enabling vPC are listed here. This configuration should be implemented on both switches
in parallel.
in parallel.
1. Enable the vPC feature.
2. Create the vPC domain.
3. Configure the peer keepalive link.
4. Configure the vPC peer link Port Channel.
5. Check the status of the vPC.
1. Enable the vPC feature:
N5548-Bottom#
configure terminal
N5548-Bottom(config)#
feature vpc
N5548-Top#
configure terminal
N5548-Top(config)#
feature vpc
2. Create the vPC domain (the domain should be unique within network):
N5548-Bottom(config)#
vpc domain 5
N5548-Bottom(config)# role priority 1
N5548-Bottom(config)# system-priority 1
N5548-Top(config)#
vpc domain 5
N5548-Top(config)# role priority 2
N5548-Top(config)# system-priority 1
3. Configure the peer keepalive link over the management network:
N5548-Bottom(config-vpc-domain)#
peer-keepalive destination 172.25.182. 109 source
172.25.182. 108
Note:
--------:: Management VRF will be used as the default VRF ::--------
N5548-Top(config-vpc-domain)#
peer-keepalive destination 172.25.182. 108 source
172.25.182. 109
Note:
--------:: Management VRF will be used as the default VRF ::--------
