Nexus 5548 create new vpc

Hey all,

there are two Nexus 5548 in a vpc domain.

I want to add a new switch to both Nexus 5548 with 2 connections on every N5K.

So 4 connections in total.

So I need to put the two interfaces on N5K1 in a port-channel:

int range Eth1-2

   channel-group 50 mode active.

 

After that:

int po50

    vpc 50.

    switchport mode trunk

 

Would you do that the same way?

Can that cause an outage?

Do I need to be aware of something?

 

Thank you in advance!

That works. Should be no problem at all. Not sure your physical interfaces will take the "channel-group x mode active" command until you've duplicated the port-channel config on the physical interfaces. They have to be the same when setting up the VPC, or NX-OS barks at you.
