Can Port Channel members going to different switch? Why?

getaway51
Level 2
Level 2

In this case, the port-channel members are connected to 2 different distribution switch dissw01 and dissw02.

I thought port-channel members from one switch suppose to connect to same one switch. 

What happen when port-channel from one switch going to 2 different switches? Is this for redundancy and load-sharing purpose? The port status is trnk-bndl, sounds like showing it config is port-channel & bundling?

 

accsw01# sh port-channel summary
Flags: D - Down P - Up in port-channel (members)
I - Individual H - Hot-standby (LACP only)
s - Suspended r - Module-removed
b - BFD Session Wait
S - Switched R - Routed
U - Up (port-channel)
p - Up in delay-lacp mode (member)
M - Not in use. Min-links not met

Any command to check whether the 2 switches are physically stacked together or they are bind together using vpc? These 2 methods not the same right?As I know vpc is virtual, but I am not sure vpc is using wht to combine 2 switches as one. 

Gateway, 

 

What are the models of switches to which these two Port Channel interfaces are connected ?

 

Cheers,
Scott

Look like you ignoring the inputs we requested, until we know the model of the switch, and how you connected, it hard to say how your environment.

 

it is like  put some peson in dark room and asking that person where are you ?
