Non-redundant ports: Ports on either of the peer switches that are not part of the VPC (ports P4 and S4). VPC interfaces and non-redundant ports cannot be members of the same VLAN, i.e. a VLAN may contain VPC interfaces or a VLAN may contain non-redundant ports, but not both. In the case where all VPC member ports are UP, data traffic does not traverse the peer link.
