    One thing I'd add is once the port channel is up, if you need to make configuration changes don't do them on just a single physical interface at a time or the port channel will come down due to things not matching. Instead make changes on the logical port channel interface and the Cisco device will automatically copy those changes to the physical interface configurations so that you don't take the whole interface down.

    Good video and good explanation of LACP from the switch side. I work on rack servers and dealt with an issue of a port-channel being down that was causing unreachability issues for a server. We aren't sure what caused the configuration to go down but once we determined the issue was on the switch side and not the host side, we got the networking team to fix the issue. It was boggling my mind, the on-site technician, and their manager.

    • @Certbros
      @Certbros  4 роки тому

      Are you saving your configuration before you close packet tracer? Try running the command 'copy run start' on each switch to save the config.
      If you have already done that STP will take a few seconds before it allows the interfaces to go up. It needs to transition to the forwarding state.
      Hope this helps.

    Will it load balance a single flow or will it load assign flows to a given link to attempt to balance the channel? For example, if I have 4x 1Gbps links aggregated into one logical 4Gbps EtherChannel and I have a single PC sending 2Gbps to that switch's link, will it be bottlenecked to 1Gbps or will it send all 2Gbps split over the links?
    I'm sure if it was 2 PC's with 1Gbps each it would split and balance to at least 2 of the 4 physical links.
