Wow. A fellow greybeard. OK. That's what I needed to know. I'm trying to understand if VPC has any more recent enhancements that weren't around for some older multi-chassis channel methods but I don't see anything specific in the docs other than some FHRP (HSRP only it appears) and PIM tweaks. If anyone has some really deep docs on VPC I'd appreciate the links. Thanks. -Hammer- "I was a normal American nerd" -Jack Herer On 1/13/2012 1:31 PM, Joel jaeggli wrote:

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? vpc/vlt/mlag/s/mlt
