vPC, Bridge Assurance & Loop Guard

Henry Rehne

Can someone please assist in recommending the best method of configuring a vPC Network with Spanning-Tree.

Earlier Design documents recommend running Bridge Assurance between Nexus switches.

A more updated document (March 2013) recommends Not running Bridge-Assurance. (Except on the Peer-Link)

We are running a pure vPC environment with Dual-Sided-vPC, so no Blocking Ports between Access, Distribution & Core Layers.

We occasionally get Bridge-Assurance Blocking/Unblocking alerts as well as Traffic Disruption during this time.

Would anyone recommend keeping Bridge-Assurance or removing it?

Would anyone recommend running STP Loop-Guard instead?

Thanks in advance.
