FTOS>
When more than one interface is added to a Layer 2 port channel, FT OS selects one of the active interfaces
in the port channel to be the Primary Port. The primary port replies to flooding and sends protocol PDUs.
An asterisk in the
show interfaces port-channel brief
As soon as a physical interface is added to a port channel, the properties of the port channel determine the
properties of the physical interface. The configuration and status of the port channel are also applied to the
physical interfaces within the port channel. For example, if the port channel is in Layer 2 mode, you cannot
add an IP address or a static MAC address to an interface that is part of that port channel. As the following
example illustrates, interface GigabitEthernet 1/6 is part of port channel 5, which is in Layer 2 mode, and
an error message appeared when an IP address was configured.
