hi this is hamza
i m making ether-channel between two different switches first one is Cisco catalyst 3560 24PS and on other side fortiswitch 14D i have plugged two backbones on port 21 and 22 on Cisco side and on port 1 and 24 on fortiswitch side
fortiswitch is using active mode while cisco is using passive mode
as u can see the configuration
the problem is when i configure ether-channel cisco switch shutdown port fa0/21 and if i plug into on another port it gets back up, it seems when i make-up LACP protocol that backbone doesn't work
both sides have same duplex and speed and both backbones are same in every form
Current configuration : 1739 bytes

i tried without switchport nonegotiate but that still doesn't work out
hope u understand that problem

The switchport trunk encapsulation dot1Q command is an older command for older IOS because in the past Cisco devices supported both ISL and dot1q. If you are running a new version of IOS, you don't need this command. All you need is:
switchport mode trunk

Hi,
If LACP does not work try it mode on.Example:
interface FastEthernet0/21
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
speed 100
duplex full
channel-group 1 mode on
And test again.

yes i will try this one , but i did not understand why do we need to use switchport trunk encapsulation dot1Q instead only using switchport mode trunk i never use this encapsulation in packet tracer if this is necessary to use it with switchport mode trunk then y did not Cisco recommend it while training of CCNA
can u please guide me that switches in packet tracer performing layer 3 switches or layer 2 i can olny understand of word between L3 and L2 is the difference of ip assigning is it true or their is something else
