DETAILED STEPS
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
Example:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)#
Step 2
show vpc consistency-parameters {global |
interface port-channel channel-number}
Example:
switch(config)# show vpc
consistency-parameters global
switch(config)#
This example shows how to check that the required configurations are compatible across all the vPC
interfaces:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# show vpc consistency-parameters global
switch(config)#
Messages regarding the vPC interface configuration compatibility are also logged to the syslog.
Note

Moving Other Port Channels into a vPC

Note We recommend that you attach the vPC domain downstream port channel to two devices for redundancy.
To connect to the downstream device, you create a port channel from the downstream device to the
primary vPC peer device and you create another port channel from the downstream device to the
secondary peer device. Finally, working on each vPC peer device, you assign a vPC number to the port
channel that connects to the downstream device. You will experience minimal traffic disruption when
you are creating vPCs.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you have enabled the vPC feature.
Ensure that you are using a Layer 2 port channel.
Ensure that you are in the correct VDC (or use the switchto vdc command).
