Hello,
Im trying to setup an EtherChannel between my 3750 stack and my 2960S stack.
I have 2 3750x in stack form. (2 switches).
I have 4 2960s in stack form. (4 switches).
I need to create a 2GB channel between them. My core is the 3750, and my 4 stack 2960s is on another floor, so I want to create a 2GB pipe between them.
I know you can create a PO between them, but what I want to do is create a 2GB pipe between them that run at the same time, active on both 1GB ports.
Is that possible and how? This is my current setup so far:

Not possible AFAIK.
LACP will provide load balancing and redundancy which is pretty good for most use cases.
Other then that, you would have to look at 10GB uplinks between switches for more bandwidth.
