Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone could give me the pros and cons of interconnecting
Nexus 5000 switches other than the reason to run vPC in between them. I'm of
the opinion that access switches should never to interconnected due to
possible STP looping issues. In this case however, I'm not so sure in the
case where vPC fails, will this cause some degree of exposure to STP
convergence issues?

Cheers!!
