Verifying That Virtual Chassis Ports Are Operational
Purpose
Display the status of Virtual Chassis ports (VCPs) in a Virtual Chassis or Virtual Chassis Fabric (VCF).
VCPs are not displayed when you issue the show interfaces
command.
Action
Display the VCPs:

Meaning
The dedicated VCPs are displayed as vcp-0 and vcp-1. The uplink interfaces that have been set as uplink VCPs are displayed as 1/0, 1/1, 1/2, and 1/3. The network interfaces that have been set as VCPs are displayed as 0/20 and 0/21. The neighbor interface names of uplink and network VCPs are of the form vcp-255/pic/port—for example, vcp-255/1/0. In that name, vcp-255 indicates that the interface is a VCP, 1 is the uplink PIC number, and 0 is the port number. The fpc number is the same as the member ID. The trunk ID is a positive number ID assigned to the link aggregation group (LAG) formed by the Virtual Chassis. If no LAG is formed, the value is –1.
