Port in suspended mode between cisco 9300 and avaya

arouna.kikone1
Level 1
Level 1

Hi ALL

I have two Cisco 9300X-24Y-E stacked switches. I want to implement etherchannel between my cisco switches with an avaya switch.
After the configurations and the interconnection of the switches, the port-channel goes into "suspended" mode.

Note that the cisco 9300 switch does not allow me to type the command "Switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q".

Need your help to solve this problem which prevents me from evolving in my project.
below is the ports config in etherchannel:

*********************************************

Sorry, what I meant is that the Avaya seems not to be understanding the LACP from cisco side. 

I would try mode "on" just to make sure

The port channel is SD' meaning it down?

In SW you need to do these step in these seq 

1- make port member of PO

2- config PO 

3- no shut PO 

Please @MHM Cisco World  what does PO stand for?

PO Port channel

Hi @arouna.kikone1 

  If you connect both switches only with one interface the interfaces come up correctly?

If yes, configure the port-channel with the "on" and "passive" mode.  Just to make sure the mode is not wrong considering the Avaya side.

channel-group number mode {active | on | passive}

@Flavio Miranda I connected the two switches with only one port but the port-channel always remains in "suspended" mode

 But without port-channel the interface stay UP ?  Just trying to make sure you dont have a problem on the basic which is interface.

yes without the PO port 24 is UP when we connect the cable as you can see on the outputs of the command "show interfaces twentyFiveGigE 1/0/24" that I shared above

@Flavio Miranda @MHM Cisco World 

you can see the lacp config on the avaya switch in the attached file

@Flavio Miranda @MHM Cisco World 

LACP and TRUNK on avaya switch

@arouna.kikone1  the configuration seems to be ok but I would like to confirm with you are able to get the interface up without the port channel config.

 

@Flavio Miranda yes without the PO port 24 is UP when we connect the cable as you can see on the outputs of the command "show interfaces twentyFiveGigE 1/0/24" that I shared above

One port the PO is up add other one the PO is down' 

Try

PO shut 

connect cable to both port

PO no shut 

The PO is down because of stp issue 

@MHM Cisco World we are at the weekend of here work resumes on Monday.
I'll check the track you put me on and get back to you.

Yes' also share show lacp internal when you back to site.
