In Figure
Ethernet PortChannels are not supported on MPS-14/2 modules and 9216i IPS modules.
PortChannel interfaces provide configuration options for both Gigabit Ethernet and Fibre Channel.
Note
However, based on the PortChannel membership, only Gigabit Ethernet parameters or Fibre Channel
parameters are applicable.

Configuring Ethernet PortChannels

The PortChannel configuration specified in
Ethernet PortChannel configurations.
To configure Ethernet PortChannels, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch1# config terminal
switch1(config)#
Step 2
switch(config)# interface port-channel 10
switch(config-if)#
Step 3
switch(config-if)# ip address 10.1.1.1
255.255.255.0
Step 4
switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Step 5
switch(config)# interface gigabitethernet 9/3
switch(config-if)#
Step 6
switch(config-if)# channel-group 10
gigabitethernet 9/3 added to port-channel 10
and disabled
please do the same operation on the switch at
the other end of the port-channel, then do "no
shutdown" at both ends to bring them up
switch(config-if)#
Step 7
switch(config-if)# no shutdown

Chapter 16, "Configuring PortChannels,"
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
Configures the specified PortChannel (10).
Enters the IPv4 address (10.1.1.1) and subnet
mask (255.255.255.0) for the PortChannel.
Note A PortChannel does not have any
members when first created.
Enables the interface.
Configures the specified Gigabit Ethernet
interface (slot 9, port 3).
Adds Gigabit Ethernet interfaces 9/3 to channel
group 10. If channel group 10 does not exist, it
is created. The port is shut down.
Enables the selected interface.
