Hi, in vPC configuration in case of dual-active the secondary vPC-peer susends all it vPC-Ports.
In addition to that its possible to suspend the orphan-ports (which are not connected via vPC) as well by configuring under the interface
vpc orphan-ports suspend
which is a very helpful command for example if you have connected one armed FWs to the Nexus.
Unfortunately there is no way to run this command on port-channel interfaces, just on physical one.
Its also not posisble to configure it on the physical interfaces which are member of a port-channel.
Is there a way to achive it on orphan port-channels as well ??
Thx in Advance

No, we just tried to apply the command on physical interfaces and it behaved correctly.

Hi hubert,
i test putting vpc orphan-port suspend first then put the channel-group config.
it works as expected.
i am not sure if this is a bug or not supported config.
have you found a solution?

Hi Folks,
vpc orphan-ports suspend is only supported on physical interaces & not on port-channels.
To have this mentioned in the CCO doc, there is already a bug filed.
Bug id id CSCua54988.

Confirming this behavour on 5548UP running NX-OS 5.2(1)N1(3)
1/30 is a normal access port, 1/13 is a member of a non-vpc port-channel.
5548UP(config)# int e 1/30
5548UP(config-if)# vpc ?
orphan-port Orphan-port (non-vpc port)
5548UP(config-if)# vpc orphan-port ?
suspend Suspend - when vPC secondary peerlink goes down
5548UP(config)# int e1/13
5548UP(config-if)# vpc ?
