Etherchannel On Different Interface

[himanshudwivedi]

Each EtherChannel can consist of up to eight compatibly configured Ethernet interfaces. All interfaces in each EtherChannel must be the same speed, and all must be configured as either Layer 2 or Layer 3 interfaces.

But when I try combining 2 fast ethernet link and 1 gigabit link in packet tracer and bundling in 1 channel, there is no error. Please do any 1 explain will it work or not in live environment?

2 fast ethernet link and 1 gigabit   - this is not supported, all port-channel members should be the same speed.

i am not familiar with PT, this is the most case will not work.

Thanks alot

Most of the issues with Etherchannels (Link Aggregation) are because of misconfiguration. Keep in mind that the configuration of all physical interfaces has to match. the ports that you want to connect all port-channel members should be the same speed.
