Double sided vPC between two pairs of N5k

hi guys,

I have seen many examples of double sided vPC between one pair of N7k and one pair of N5k, I cannot see why it would not work between two pairs of N5k, could you confirm? any limitations?

thanks

Hi,

I don't see any issue with double sides vPC between two pairs of 5Ks.  I think, the reason you don't see it often is because usually you have a set of 5ks with vPC as layer-2 and a set of 7Ks as layer-2/3.  Of course you could use a second set of 5Ks in place of 7Ks and use them as layer-2/3.  This is with daughter cards installed on 5Ks.
