OK, So I'm doing a lot of reading lately on Nexus as we are about to get into the 7k/5k game and of course a lot of the marketing revolves around VPC. Every time I see it referenced, I keep remembering a reasonably reliable Nortel implementation called Split MLT (Multi Link Trunk). Is there something fancy here that I'm missing in the docs or am I wrong in equating the two? Isn't VPC just S/MLT? It's just that Cisco has shown up 8 years late and is trying to hype it up to compensate?
