[c-nsp] Nexus 7K vPC with Object Tracking

[Oliver Garraux]

You might consider putting a L3 network in place between the two N7K's for
routing, so that they can re-route upstream traffic through the core link
on the other N7K during a failure rather than bringing the physical links
down. It can just be a VLAN w/ SVI's trunked over the VPC peer link.
