feature cfs eth distribute

Hello

It is to know if you could help me with the functions of the cfs eth distribute feature in Nexus devices, since I would like to know what the Switch uses them for.

The Cisco Fabric Services over Ethernet (CFSoE) is a reliable state transport mechanism that is used to synchronize the actions of the vPC peer devices. CFSoE carries messages and packets for many features linked with vPC, such as STP and IGMP. Information is carried in CFS/CFSoE protocol data units (PDUs).

When you enable the vPC feature, the device automatically enables CFSoE, and you do not have to configure anything. CFSoE distributions for vPCs do not need the capabilities to distribute over IP or the CFS regions. You do not need to configure anything for the CFSoE feature to work correctly on vPCs.
