Hello Kapil Yes, vPCs are a feature that is supported by Nexus series devices. However, it is possible to create a similar arrangement when using Cisco IOS devices. Such a feature is called Multichassis Etherchannel. There are various ways to implement this using IOS devices: - Using [VSS](https://networklessons.com/switching/cisco-6500-vss-configuration-example) you can make two switches act virtually as one, and create an etherchannel with links coming from both physical devices. - Using [StackWise](https://networklessons.com/switching/cisco-stackwise), you can connect two or more physical devices into a single logical switch, and create etherchannels with links that come from multiple physical switches. - Using [Multichassis LACP](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/ios-xml/ios/cether/configuration/15-s/ce-15-s-book/ce-multichass-lacp.html) you can dynamically create etherchannel links coming from multiple physical devices. I hope this has been helpful! Laz --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.networklessons.com/t/spine-and-leaf-architecture/8418)._
