Figure 4.    vPC Ports and Orphan Ports 

 

Server 6 connects to a Cisco Nexus Switch with an active-standby teaming configuration. The ports that server 6 

connects to on the Cisco Nexus Switch are orphaned ports. 

vPC Topology with Fabric Extenders 

Figure 5 illustrates another vPC topology consisting of Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches and Cisco Nexus 2000 

Series Fabric Extenders (in straight-through mode: that is, each fabric extender is single-attached to a Cisco Nexus 

5000 Series Switch). 

Figure 5 shows devices that are connected to the vPC peer (Cisco Nexus 5000 Series Switches 5k01 and 5k02) with 

a PortChannel (a vPC); for example, server 2, which is configured for NIC teaming with the IEEE 802.3ad option. 

Servers 1 and 3 connect to orphan ports.
