Question 65

An engineer configured the OSPF protocol in the vPC topology. During the catastrophic failure of one of the vPC member switches, the traffic was routed to a black hole. This route was caused by the long convergence time caused by the delay of the vPC member switch reboot. After the failure, the engineer rebooted both switches, but the secondary switch powered on before the primary one. It caused all the vPCs to be shut down due to consistency-check violations.

Which two features must be used to prevent these situations from happening in the future? (Choose two.)

    Correct Answer: C, D

    To prevent situations like the described failure, the 'delay restore' feature helps by delaying the bringing up of vPC links until the secondary switch stabilizes, which can prevent blackholing caused by long convergence times. The 'auto-recovery' feature is also essential as it ensures that vPCs are automatically restored after a failure or consistency check violation, avoiding the scenario where all vPCs are shut down due to reboot order issues.
