vPC: Virtual Port-Channel
 vPC Terminology on N5K-N2K

vPC Domain  vPC Peer: A vPC switch, one of a pair

 vPC Member Port: One of a set of ports (port
channels) that form a vPC
vPC Peer Keepalive Link vPC Peer Link
 vPC: The combined port channel between the vPC
peers and the downstream device
 vPC Peer Link: Link used to synchronize state
between vPC peer devices, must be 10GbE; also
carry multicast/broadcast/ flooding traffic and data
vPC Peer
traffic in case of vpc member port failure
 vPC Peer Keepalive Link: The peer keepalive link
between vPC peer switches;
vPC it is used to carry heartbeat packets
vPC Member Port
 CFS: Cisco Fabric Services protocol, used for state
synchronization and configuration validation
between vPC peer devices

Virtual Port-Channel
Feature Overview

 Allow a single device to use a port channel

across two upstream switches
 Eliminate STP blocked ports
 Uses all available uplink bandwidth
Logical Topology without vPC
 Dual-homed server operate in
active-active mode
 Provide fast convergence upon
link/device failure

Logical Topology with vPC

Unicast Forwarding
First Packet from Host A to Host C
SW
1. Host A send packet to Host C;
Host A runs hash algorithm to select
5 Host C one path
N5k-1 N5k-2
2. FEX runs hash algorithm to select one
3 fabric uplink
4
3. N5k-1 learns Host A and flood packets
to VLAN members; one copy is sent to
2 switch ―SW‖; one copy for Host B and
one copy for peer link
4. N5k-2 floods the packet to VLAN
EXCEPT the vPC member ports to
prevent duplicated packets
1 5. N5k-1 updates Host A entry to N5k-2

Host A Host B
Presentation_ID © 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 18
Unicast Forwarding
Return Packet from Host C to Host A
SW 1 1. Host C reply packet to Host A;
Host C SW runs algorithm and selects the path
N5k-1 N5k-2 to N5k-2
2 1. N5k-2 searches MAC table for Host A,
which points to its local FEX port that
belongs to vPC bundle for Host A;
N5k-2 sends packets to FEX
2. FEX forwards packet to Host A based
on the internal header constructed by
3 N5k-2

Host A Host B

 vPC Interaction with STP
 STP is deployed to prevent vPC failure
cases
N5k-1 N5k-2  Only vPC primary switch runs STP
vPC Primary vPC Secondary  vPC secondary switch forward BPDU
frames to primary
 vPC peer link is not blocked via STP
 vPC primary election based on priority

Management vrf Is the Preferred Method

Enable Telnet or Use SSH N5K#feature telnet

N5K(config)# interface mgmt 0

1. Configure mgmt0:
N5K(config-if)#ip address

Default route for the mgmt vrf

N5K(config)# vrf context management
OR N5K(config-vrf)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 gw_ip

Image Installation/Upgrade
N5K# install all kickstart <path> system <path>

 Two images: kickstart and system

 Preferred upgrade method, compared to the manual copy of the images
and update of the boot variables
 Updates the FEX Primary image, in addition to installing the switch images
 FEX is online while installation is in progress
 After installation FEX is rebooted along with the switch
 Service downtime: seven minutes; five minutes for 5k and two minutes
for FEX
 Configuration check is performed during image install
N5K# show install all impact kickstart <path> system <path>

N5K# show install all status

Jumbo Frames
Six Times Bigger MTU Size Optimized for 10 GE Traffic

 Max MTU is 9216 for jumbo

 Enable jumbo on the servers and OS (ESX)

N5K(config-pmap-nq)# class type network-qos class-default
N5K(config-pmap-c-nq)# mtu 9216
N5K(config-pmap-c-nq)# exit
N5K(config)# system qos
N5K(config-sys-qos)# service-policy type network-qos jumbo

 The system jumbomtu command defines the maximum MTU size for
the switch; however, jumbo MTU is only supported for system classes
that have mtu configured

N5K(config)#system jumbo mtu <2240-9216>
