Enhanced vPC Testing<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n

I have been working since long in DC Environment with Nexus Switches along with UCS, Never got a chance to setup a Lab and explain some config.<\/p>\n

some of Live Environment, we are not allowed to do some test.<\/p>\n

Finally Eve-NG is a good Gui for DC lab testing, and now it support to LACP on N9K and Server Side.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Cisco has a good documentation to understand vPC<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

EVE-NG have nice platform to test some features – can be download\u00a0 Lab below Link :<\/p>\n
