Re: [Proposal] Minimise VR downtime during network update.

Can you make a ticket on apache instead of referring an internal ticket?

Can you describe how this work relates to the rvpc refactor work done for
4.6?

Thanks Bharat,

One of the main implications of the rvpc refactor is that vpc routers and
normal VRs are greatly unified. If you are working with master you will
notice this.

happy sailing,

Hi Daan,

I am not aware of  the work done for rVPC networks.  I am still in the POC stage, will update the FS or scope it down depending on 
the changes related to rvpc, If there are too many changes may be i will restrict this to non vpc networks.

I will create a apache ticket fro this work. 

Thanks,
Bharat.
