Re: OT - RE: Multichassis etherchannel

Hi,

MEC is to do etherchannel between more than 2 devices.

Look

sw1VSS----------sw2VSS

       \ /
             SW3

SW3 do ehterchannel between 2 devices. With VSS feature sw3 sees sw1 and sw2
as one device and etherchannel does not have problem until this point, if
the connection between sw1 and sw2 where the VSS is doing SW3 will have
problems coz now it sees 2 diferent devices (you can only do ehterchannel
between 2 devices). That is why MEC is done if connection between sw1 and
sw2 is down sw3 only sees one device and avoids stp loops, etc....
