Link Aggregation - Cisco 1800 Series Router

[offpister]

Hello,

I was just wondering if it is possible to setup Link Aggregation between the switch ports on a Cisco 1801 Router and a Catalyst 2950 switch.

Also is it possible to set up link aggregation between a managed switch and an unmanaged switch?

Thanks.

Jonathan Worth.

Jonathan,

Its not supported on 1801 router. Please use feature navigator tool below for the feature sets available in a particular hardware or software.

Hi,

Not saying its not possible as I have not used those smaller routers, but I have never heard of a router doing etherchannel or link aggregation. Router interfaces can't be addressed in the same network, so it would have to be a layer 2 aggregation, and I don't think a router of that size would support that kind of bandwidth anyway...

No you cannot, if it is unmanaged you cannot do link aggregation. It would be nice, but it's not possible.

Please rate the helpfull posts.
