Dear Sirs!
I have two Nexus 5596 (single side vPC) and one Cisco ISR G2 3925.
I want to make between this equipment, Port-channel, and connect Cisco 3925 to each Nexus. Because Cisco 3900 do not support LACP, can I make static port-channel? (channel-group 1 mode on).
In the future, I will connect two ASA5515, each ASA to both Nexus. Can I use static port-channel with vPC?
Thanks!

Hi,
If the 5ks are sigle sided vPC, that means they are not connected together. If that is the case you can't connect the 3925 to both 5ks.
Can you clarify?

Maybe I incorrectly described my network.
I have two nexus 5596 and vPC peer link between them:
interface port-channel1
description VPC KEEPALIVE LINK
no switchport
speed 10000
vrf member VPC_LNK
ip address 10.0.0.1/30
interface port-channel2
description VPC PEER LINK
switchport mode trunk
spanning-tree port type network
speed 10000
vpc peer-link
vPC Peer-link status

Yes, in this case since the 5ks are connected together using a vPC peer link, the portchannel will work fine. Just configure the ports as on.
