You must configure peer detection on an IP
interface with a VLAN that is not shared by any of the VPC interfaces.
1. Select the Peer Detection Mode option to Enable or Disable the dual control plane
detection protocol (DCPDP). The mode is disabled by default. This configuration is used
to enable the detection of peer VPC switches (and suppress state transitions out of the
secondary state) in the presence of peer link failure.
2. In the Peer IP
Address field, enter the IP address of the peer VPC device. This is the
destination IP address in the DCPDP messages. The unconfigured value is 0.0.0.0.
3. Enter the local Source IP
Address to be used by DCPDP. The unconfigured value is
0.0.0.0.
4. Enter the local UDP Port number which is used to listen for peer DCPDP packets.
The
range is 1 to 65535 seconds. The default is 50000. The unconfigured value is 50000.
5. Click Apply to send the updated configuration to the switch. Configuration changes take
ef
fect immediately.
6. Click Cancel to cancel the configuration on the screen and reset the data on the screen to
