I think that the Etherchannel configuration is working correctly. After
placing two ports in a port group, oneof the ports shows that STP is
"disabled" and the other shows that it is in a forwarding state. I believe
this is correct and that the switch only allows one of the ports in the
group to participate in STP. Please correct me if I am mistaken.
Thanks,
Lonnie
