Port-channel bundled/unbundled

s.srivas
Level 1
Level 1

Is this bundled or not bundled, is what I'm trying to confirm.

I get two conflicting messages about, if the port-channel bundle is working or not working. (There is traffic on two channels intended to bundled)

Version 12.2

Switch1

Config on port 1/1 is encap 820.1q, node (defaul?)

Config on port 9/1 is encap (default?) ,and mode trunk

Switch1 and Switch2 configs are similar

Switch1 extracts

Switch1>sh int po 1 eth

Age of the Port-channel = 01d:04h:02m:05s

Logical slot/port = 14/1 Number of ports = 2

GC = 0x00010001 HotStandBy port = null

Port state = Port-channel Ag-Inuse

Protocol = PAgP

Ports in the Port-channel:

Index Load Port EC state No of bits

------+------+------+------------------+-----------

0 55 Gi1/1 Desirable-Sl 4

1 AA Gi9/1 Desirable-Sl 4

Time since last port bundled: 01d:03h:45m:47s Gi9/1

You have setup a trunked etherchannel and it appears to be working correctly. this info tells you that the channel is working correctly, to check the trunk do a "show int trunk" also.

Thanks Glen,

Also just noticed

Time since last port bundled: 02d:03h:08m:29s Gi9/1

Time since last port Un-bundled: 02d:03h:20m:16s Gi9/1

unbundled time is larger than bundled time.

just means that the last time the etherchannel went down was 02d:03h:20m:16s Gi9/1

Came back up 02d:03h:08m:29s Gi9/1 .
