Thanks Vincent, appreciate the help ... But it looks like its all working after I restarted everything today very strange, fail over works also but takes a couple of seconds guessing that because its virtual etc
Have included the outputs in case it helps anyone else or there is an error
source is a vPC in Eve-Ng with ip 10.1.14.100/24 DGW: 10.1.14.1

Hi All,
This hopefully is very basic and my error.
I have 2 CX Virtual devices my lab and trying to configure VSX before i implement for a customer. I have configured 2 x switches as a VSX pair with VLAN 10 SVI and active gateways. I have then tried to configure another switch with a lag to the VSX pair and cannot get any pings across. the configs of the switches are below, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Dale
