Configuration Parameters That Must Be Identical
The configuration parameters in this section must be configured identically on both devices of the vPC
peer link; otherwise, the vPC moves fully or partially into a suspended mode.
Caution When spanning tree is disabled for any VLANs irrespective of whether it is a VPC VLAN or not, it will
cause a Global type 1 inconsistency causing all VPCs VLANs to be suspended. This issue is also
observed when disabling spanning tree for a non-existent VLAN.
You must ensure that all interfaces in the vPC have the identical operational and configuration
Note
parameters listed below.
Enter the show vpc consistency-parameters command to display the configured values on all interfaces
Note
in the vPC. The displayed configurations are only those configurations that would limit the vPC peer
link and vPC from coming up.
The devices automatically check for compatibility for some of these parameters on the vPC interfaces.
The per-interface parameters must be consistent per interface, and the global parameters must be
consistent globally:
