•
Note When a new EtherChannel is created, either through Admin Group assignment in native IOS or dynamic
formation in hybrid OS, the EtherChannel list on this dialog will not automatically update with the new
EtherChannel object. Reselect the appropriate software object to refresh the list.
EtherChannel Ports Area
The EtherChannel Ports area lists the interfaces that belong to the selected EtherChannel:
•
•
•
•
Admin Group—In native IOS, this is the EtherChannel identifier that the interface belongs to (or
the new EtherChannel to be created). In hybrid OS, this is the channel group to which the interface
belongs.
Slot—Slot number of the interface.
Port—Port number of the interface.
Operation Mode—The PAgP operational mode of the component interface. This field has one of
the following values:
desirable—PAgP packets sent on interface. If no data packets are received, the interface is never
–
attached to a portchannel and cannot be used for data.
desirableSilent—PAgP packets sent on interface. If no data packets received after some
–
timeout, the interface is attached by itself, to a portchannel and can be used for data.
automatic—PAgP packets are not sent on interface until at least one PAgP packet is received
–
which indicates the sender is operating in desirable or desirableSilent mode. If no data packets
received, the interface is never attached to a portchannel and cannot be used for data.
automaticSilent—PAgP packets are not sent on interface until at least one PAgP packet is
–
received which indicates the sender is operating in desirable or desirableSilent mode. If no data
packets received after some timeout, the interface is attached by itself, to a portchannel and can
be used for data.
Port State—State of the PAgP state machine on this interface. The state has the following values:
portDown—The current operational state of the interface is not up.
–
portUp—The current operational state of the interface is up, no packets yet received.
–
dataReceived—Data packets, but no PAgP packets, have been received.
–
upData—Interface is aggregated, but no PAgP packets have been received.
–
pagpReceived—One or more PAgP packets have been received.
–
– biDirectional—Interface has passed PAgP packets in both directions.
– upPagp—Interface is aggregated by means of PAgP.
– upMult—Interface is aggregated to an agport, but connects to more than one external device.
