You've configured the Cisco switch for dynamic LACP, while the Foundry FESX is configured for static etherchannel. So, your choices are to a.) reconfigure the Cisco box to do static etherchannel or b.) configure the FESX for LACP. Here's a config sample for LACP on Foundry gear:
FastIron(config)#interface ethernet 1 FastIron(config-if-e1000-1)#link-aggregate active FastIron(config)#interface ethernet 2 FastIron(config-if-e1000-2)#link-aggregate active -Jared -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Randy McAnally Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 12:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [f-nsp] (no subject) Subject: port-channel help (warning, might be dumb) Date: Thu, 28 Jan 2010 14:55:20 -0500 Message-Id: <[email protected]> In-Reply-To: <[email protected]> References: <[email protected]> X-Mailer: OpenWebMail 2.53 X-OriginatingIP: 96.244.241.150 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 I'm trying to configure a LACP port-channel between Cisco 6509 and Foundry FESX. Cisco config: interface Port-channel1 switchport switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28 switchport mode trunk no ip address ! interface GigabitEthernet1/5 switchport switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28 switchport mode trunk no ip address channel-protocol lacp channel-group 1 mode active ! interface GigabitEthernet1/6 switchport switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,28 switchport mode trunk no ip address channel-protocol lacp channel-group 1 mode active ! Foundry config (trunk config only, I omitted vlan config for the purpose of this email): trunk ethe 1 to 2 trunk deploy After everything is seemingly up and running on the Foundry side (trunk active), I notice some intermittent connectivity, along with Arp traffic looping back from the Cisco. So I check the Cisco and po1 is 'down', no trunk... #sh int po1 Port-channel1 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect) Hardware is EtherChannel, address is 0013.6067.899a (bia 0013.6067.899a) MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec, <--snip--> I hope I'm just missing something really stupid on the Cisco side...because there isn't much else to configure on the Foundry!
