I am looking for documentation on how to set up a series of "split Etherchannel" connections. I believe that this can be done with 802.3ad (LACP), but I need some specific documentation on the subject.
In a split LACP environment, an Etherchannel group is divided between two core switches and those core switches coordinate L2 communication via an Inter-Switch Trunk. I need to be able to "layer" this configuration to create a "cluster of clusters".
See the attached diagram.
I need to understand the proper Cisco terminology for this structure, and I need a reference to documentation on how to set it up using 6500 switches as the "core".
Thanks.
