Hi everyone this is Albert. Could anyone help me with this issue?
I'm trying to configure trunking with FastEtherChannel (2 ports) between a cisco catalyst 2900 xl series and a HP Procurve 4108 gl where in the specifications says FEC is supported but I'm not able to do so:
The way that I configure in the cisco two ports to form a fastetherchannel is:
int fa0/23
speed 100
duplex full
port group 1
int fa0/24
speed 100
duplex full
port group 1
In the HP the way is something like that :
trunk c13-c14 trk3 FEC
interface c13
speed-duplex 100-full
no lacp
interface c14
speed-duplex 100-full
no lacp
If I show cdp nei:
cisco#sh cdp nei
Capability Codes: R - Router, T - Trans Bridge, B - Source Route Bridge
S - Switch, H - Host, I - IGMP, r - Repeater
Device ID Local Intrfce Holdtme Capability Platform Port ID
hp(0004ea-3dbFas 0/23 125 S HP 4108GL Trk3
only one port is working (fa0/24 is down and is already connected)
the keepalive is not configured
At the HP 4108, only one port has link once the FEC is working
hp# sh cdp nei
CDP neigbors information
Port Device ID | Platform Capability
---- ----------------------------- + ---------------------------- -----------
Trk3 cisco | cisco WS-C2924-XL B S
Then I have tried to configure the cisco 2900 as follows:
int fa0/23
speed 100
duplex full
port group 1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
int fa0/24
speed 100
duplex full
port group 1
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
but the result was de same. I'm sure the spanning-tree is disable at both switches and there's only the default vlan defined.
Can someone tell me what is going wrong or how must I configure it to work properly?
Thanks it advance
Albert
