Level 1

I am preparing lab for CCNP Switch exam.

If I trace the packet , i found that ARP messages are passing from SwitchA to Switch B , but from SwitchB to SwitchA doesnt passes.

Host in SwitchB is no getting access to DHCP at router connected to SwitchA f0/1

SwitchB

show etherchannel summary

1      Po1(SU)           LACP   Fa0/3(P) Fa0/4(P) Po1(I)

SwitchA

show etherchannel summary

1      Po1(SU)           LACP   Fa0/3(P) Fa0/4(P)

Hi Irfan,

It looks like you have a wrong configuration on SwitchB. You dont put the channel group command under the actual port-channel interface itself. So please modify the configuraton as below and test the result for DHCP.

SwitchB

config terminal

interface Port-channel 1

no channel-group 1 mode passive

exit

Hope that helps

Dear Najaf,

Great finding, IDHCP is working fine. Now i have a question Why LAB says make Switch B Interface port-cha 1 passive ?

Hi Irfan,

If the Lab says that you to make interface as passive then this configuration has to be applied on the physcial interface and not on the port-channel interface, which would then be applied to the actual port-channel interface.

Hope that helps.

Najaf
