Enabling LACP between two switches (Port Channels)

Posted on February 23, 2021 By rich No Comments on Enabling LACP between two switches (Port Channels)

This configuration needs to be done on both switches. In this example, we making GigabitEthernet0/1 and 0/2 into a port channel. 

Switch(config)#inter ran gi0/1-2
Switch(config-if-range)#channel-group 1 mode active
Switch(config-if-range)#
Creating a port-channel interface Port-channel 1
%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface GigabitEthernet0/2, changed state to up
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet0/2, changed state to up
%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface GigabitEthernet0/1, changed state to up
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface GigabitEthernet0/1, changed state to up
%LINK-5-CHANGED: Interface Port-channel1, changed state to up
%LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Port-channel1, changed state to up

It’s that easy. 

You can then configure the new Port-Channel interface to be a trunk port and to carry encapsulated traffic (VLans).
