AOS-CX 10.07 Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) GuideHelp Center
ISL is out-of-sync
Solution 1
Cause
Mismatch with the ISL version or switch platform or both.
Action
- Run theshow vsx statuscommand.
- If there is an ISL version mismatch, update the software so the ISL version is the same on the local and peer VSX switch.
- If the switches have mismatching platforms, create an ISL link that connects two VSX switches with the same platform.
In the following example, the ISL channel is shown as in-sync; however, if the ISL channel was not in-sync, a different status would be provided.

Solution 2
Cause
The role is not configured on any of the VSX switches or the same role is configured on both VSX switches.
Action
- Run theshow vsx statuscommand.
If the roles are set incorrectly, the command displays therole inconsistentstatus.
- Set the roles correctly so that one of the VSX switches has the primary role and the other switch has the secondary role. To set a switch role, enter therole {primary | secondary}command.
Solution 3
Cause
The ISL interface is down on any one switch in the VSX pair.
Action
- Check ISL state and ISL link status by entering:switch#show vsx status inter-switch-link
- Re-enable the ISL interface by going to that interface context and enteringno shutdown:switch(config)#interface 1/1/1switch(config-if)#no shutdown
In the following example, the ISL state and link status are shown as in-sync and up; however, if the ISL interface is down, a different status would be provided.
