Tony,

There is not really a book that explains the technology and integration.  Your best resource is the config guides

here is one for VSS:

Hi,

Great post..

I have scenario where in 2 N5k's in a pair are connected to vss (upsttream)in a single port channel. For testing the failover and end to end connnectivity, I tried to ping from a fex on N5k to a switch connected to VSS s/w. In the mean while I rebooted the primary but the ping didn't drop but as soon as  the primary N5K was up I could see 6 to 7 ping  drops and againn it started pininng continously.. 
Can u guyz help me with it.
