How do I go about configuring 2 stacked Cisco Cat 3850 and 2 Nexus 3k switches in Etherchannel? Currently we have one Cat6 cable between the two setup and bandwidth is becoming an issue. Thank you!

Hello

You would configure the port-channels just the same as usual and on both platforms but on the nexus switches i assume these are in a vpc domain as such those port-channels would be assigned a vpc.

Example:
3850 stack
interface port-channelx
description PC to Nk3
switchport mode trunk

NK3-sw1
interface port-channel x
description PC to 3850
switchport mode trunk
vpc 10

NK3-sw2
interface port-channel x
description PC to 3850
switchport mode trunk
vpc 10
