12.4 Port Channel Examples

Scenario 1: Configuring Port Channel in LACP.
The switches in the description below are all switch and as shown in the figure, ports 1, 2, 3, 4 of SwitchA are
access ports that belong to VLAN1. Add those four ports to group1 in active mode. Ports 6, 8, 9, 10 of SwitchB
are access ports that also belong to VLA N1. Add these four ports to group2 in passive mode. All the ports
should be connected wit h cables.
The configuration steps are listed below:
SwitchA#config
SwitchA (config)#int erface ethernet 1/1-4
SwitchA (Config-If-P ort-Range)#port-group 1 mode active
SwitchA (Config-If-P ort-Range)#exit
SwitchA (config)#int erface port-channel 1
SwitchA (Config-If-P ort-Channel1)#
SwitchB#config
SwitchB (config)#port-group 2
SwitchB (config)#interface ethernet 1/6
SwitchB (Config-If-Ethernet1/6)#port-group 2 mode passive
SwitchB (Config-If-Ethernet1/6)#exit
SwitchB (config)#interface ethernet 1/8-10
SwitchB (Config-If-P ort-Range)#port-group 2 mode passive
SwitchB (Config-If-P ort-Range)#exit
SwitchB (config)#interface port-channel 2
SwitchB (Config-If-P ort-Channel2)#
Configuration result:
Shell prompts ports aggregated successfully after a while, now ports 1, 2, 3, 4 of Switch A form an aggregated
port named "P ort-Channel1", ports 6, 8, 9, 10 of S witch B forms an aggregated port named "Port -Channel2";
configurations can be made in their respective aggregated port configuration mode.
Scenario 2: Configuring Port Channel in ON mode.
