Hi,
We have Dell M6220 blade server that server is connected to cisco 3750 switch. I am trying to configure LACP in 3750 for two port which are connected to Dell M6220 server switch. The channel-group 2 mode active commande is not taking then its showing the error protocol mismatch and if i run show int port-channel 2 command the port channel status is showing down. The Dell server switch is on simple mode. below i have attached the required details. Please help me on this.
Switch#show int port-channel 2

you have to configure both members at the same time. With your config the first member stays on PAgP, but the second member tries to use LACP.
Switch(config)#interface range gig 1/0/21, gig 1/0/38
Switch(config-if-range)#no channel-group 2 mode desirable
Switch(config-if-range)#channel-protocol lacp
Switch(config-if-range)#channel-group 2 mode active
