The Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) fabric is a high availability solution that provides industry- leading performance and simplicity for campus and data center networks. When the ISL goes down, and after a few seconds, the keepalive link goes down too, the VSX fabric reacts differently depending on the split-recovery mode setting. If the split-recovery mode is enabled, the secondary switch shuts down all its SVIs and waits for the ISL to come back up. If the split- recovery mode is disabled, both switches keep their SVIs up and continue to forward traffic.
Therefore, this does not correctly describe how the VSX fabric reacts to various component failure scenarios.
