VPC TERMINOLOGIA:
vpc = è un port-channel tra una coppia di Nexus e qualsiasi altro devices in downstream;
vpc domain = è un dominio di cluster tra una coppia di Nexus ognuno dei quali ha un proprio control-plane
vpc peer-link = è un link (generalmente costituito da un port-channel con link a 10G) utilizzato per sincronizzare gli stati presenti nella coppia di Nexus; viene utilizzato il protocollo CFS (Cisco Fabric Service) per l'affidabilità di questa sincronizzazione;
vpc keepalive = è un link di management (differente rispetto al peer-link) utilizzato per verifica e monitoring dello stato di salute di ciascun Nexus del dominio;
vpc member-port = è una porta ethernet appartenente al vpc port-channel;
orphan port = è una porta ethernet non appartenente a nessun vpc port-channel (generalmente collegata a terze-parti devices);
vpc split-horizon = è attiva la funzionalità di split-horizon per evitare loop tra un vpc (traffico entrante in un determinato port-channel non può uscire dallo stesso port-channel)
