Topology:

Task:

Configure the vPC system as per topology and as per task given below.

Configure vPC domain 100 between N7K1 and N7K2
Configure N7K1 with Role priority 10 and N7K2 with Role Priority 20
Configure Peer-keepalive link between N7k1 and n7K2 on mgmt0 link.
Configure LACP port-channel port Eth1/1 and Eth1/2 on both N7K1 and N7K2 and use it as peer-link
Configure Eth1/3 on vPC 10 and Eth1/4 on vPC 20 on N7K1 and same on N7K2.
Configure Eth1/3 and Eth1/4 on N5K1 on Port channel 10 and Eth1/3 and Eth1/4 on N5K2 on Port channel 20.
Configure Layer 2 VLAN VLAN 10, VLAN 20, and VLAN 30 on All Four Switch
Configure N7K1 as STP Root Bridge.
Configure Eth1/5 on VLAN 10 on Both N5K1 and N5K2. Assign HOST 1 with IP 10.10.10.4 and Host with IP 10.10.10.5
Verify the Connectivity vPC and Connectivity between Host 1 and Host 2.

Solution:

TASK 1: Configure vPC domain 100 between N7K1 and N7K2, Configure N7K1 with Role priority 10 and N7K2 with Role Priority 20 and Configure Peer-keepalive link between N7k1 and n7K2 on mgmt0 link. Configure LACP port-channel port Eth1/1 and Eth1/2 on both N7K1 and N7K2 and use it as peer-link
