CHANNEL-GROUP

754
Syntax
id_number
channel-group
Parameters
id_number
Specifies the ID number of a new or an existing aggregator. The
range is 1 to 32.
Mode
Port Interface mode
Description
Use this command to create new aggregators or to add ports to existing
aggregators.
The lowest numbered port in an aggregator is called the base port. When
adding ports to an existing aggregator, you cannot add ports that are
below the base port. For example, you cannot add ports 1 to 6 to an
existing aggregator that consists of ports 7 to 12. You have to delete and
recreate an aggregator to change its base port.
To review the guidelines to creating or modifying aggregators, refer to
"Guidelines" on page 743.
Caution
To prevent creating a loop in your network topology, do not connect
the network cables to the ports until after you have created the
aggregator. Network loops can cause broadcast storms that can
lead to poor network performance.
