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:

@Flavio Miranda @MHM Cisco World
it looks like the PO is UP.
Can you give me some explanations on the fact that the LACP protocol did not work between the two
07-24-2023 04:43 AM
@arouna.kikone1 They are different vendor and they deploy protocols differently. This is very common unfortunatelly. Might have a technical explanation but I dont believe we can find it easilly.

@Flavio Miranda @MHM Cisco World
do you think that if I add other ports in the channel-group, there will be no loop problem?
07-24-2023 04:59 AM
@Flavio Miranda Thanks a lot for your help !!!
You get me out of a bind.
do you think that if I add other ports in the channel-group, there will be no loop problem?

You are welcome.
No. The port-channel should treat all the interfaces as one, no loop is expected.
07-24-2023 05:10 AM
Yes there is LOOP,
the ON mode make port immediate as PO without waiting check the status of SW, AGAIN DONT DO THAT.
07-24-2023 05:02 AM
00111101 -> DECODE THIS
1 active LACP
0 long LACP <<- here I think issue, change the timeout in LACP to be long not short
07-24-2023 05:09 AM
@MHM Cisco World how can i do that?
07-24-2023 05:19 AM
change the avaye LACP timeout to long and check again
07-24-2023 05:24 AM
@MHM Cisco World we have already changed the timeout on the avaya side to long but nothing has changed
07-24-2023 05:29 AM
change it to long share
show lacp internal
show lacp counter
show lacp neighbor
I run lab config Port mode ON, one port down see what happened to ping. ping failed. as I mention ON mode only use for SW-Server not SW-SW
07-24-2023 05:38 AM
@MHM Cisco World ok, let's me do that and I come back to you
07-24-2023 05:40 AM
Take your time.
