I have been asked to research running VSS between 2 6509's between 2 sites?
I am just going through the whitepapers and need to establish the link requirements for such a setup.
Is it a valid setup?
Thanks

Hi Roger,
First of all the Cisco VSS for 6500 series allows for the combination of two switches into a single, logical network entity from the network control-plane and management perspectives. To the neighboring devices, the Cisco Virtual Switching System appears as a single, logical switch
So as per above the two switches needs to be connected back to back and will be appear and manage as a single logical switch.
But in your case you are saying VSS between two different sites (i guess two geographical locations). Is that what you are trying to achieve?
