How do I name the native VLAN in a Channel group?

[Flavio Miranda]

Hi

 I have found you question confuse. If you need to name a vlan you can use the command

vlan X

 name vlan-x

If you want to assign one vlan as native in a port-channel, if the port-channel is in trunk use the command

switchport  trunk native vlan x

[Ian Dewar]

switchport  trunk native vlan x

Can x be a name?

[Flavio Miranda]

Nop, just the VLAN ID, which is a number 

[Ian Dewar]

Is this a valid configuration?

Physical connectivity is implemented between the two Layer 2 switches, and the network connectivity between them must be configured.

1. Configure an LACP EtherChannel and number it as 44; configure it between switches SW1 and SW2 using interfaces Ethemet0/0 and Ethernet0/1 on both sides. The LACP mode must match on both ends.
2. Configure the EtherChannel as a trunk link.
3. Configure the trunk link with 802.1q tags.
4. Configure VLAN 'MONITORING' as the untagged VLAN of the EtherChannel

[Flavio Miranda]

It is a valid config. 

 Are you in dobt because the Item 4 ?

[Ian Dewar]

4. Configure VLAN 'MONITORING' as the untagged VLAN of the EtherChannel

  This vlan MONITORING must have an ID or you need to create it. 

 Then, on the port-channel you need to add it as Native.

int port-channel x

 switchport trunk native vlan x

The vlan name is only a description, it is not used as parameter in any command.

Interface x

Switchport trunk native vlan x

Channel-group Y mode 

Interface port-channel Y

Switchport trunk native vlan x

You need to config native in both port and port channel 

That it 

[MHM Cisco World]

Vlan x 

Name vlanmhm

Then use vlan x in trunk command 

The trunk command only accepts vlan id not name
