Default Re: State Sync does not supports VLAN ?

sk25977: "A separate VLAN, and/or switch is recommended for each cluster."

ClusterXL.pdf: "(and that are within a VLAN, if it is a VLAN switch)".

So, the answer is yes.

As stated into another thread, yes, we have done w/ 2 pairs of 6500, 1 pair w/ (CAT OS + IOS + 2 SUP1A + 2 MFC2) and another w/ (native IOS + SUP1A + SUP2 + 2 MFC2), both w/ 2 pairs of trunk, w/ different priorities, each using the 2 gigaethernet interfaces of each SUP. W/ native IOS, you should follow the "Example Configuration of Cisco Catalyst 6xxx" (idem & idem).

"I have two Cisco Catalyst 6500...": "trunk together" or "routing"?

It must be "trunk together", i. e., L 2 - layer 2, not "routing", "since" "The Cluster Control Protocol (CCP) makes use of Layer 2 multicast," (ibidem), though "CCP runs on UDP port 8116," (ibidem).
