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:

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

did you change the timeout in avaya ?

@MHM Cisco World yes we changed avaya lacp timeout to long but on the cisco side, port 1/0/24 is still in "suspended" mode as shown below:

shut not shut the PO 
hope this issue have happy ending 

@MHM Cisco World 

the port status still hasn't changed despite the "shut" and "no shut" commands.
Is it imperative to connect all the ports that are in channel-group 40?

lacp rate normal<<- add this under interface T1/0/24 

@MHM Cisco World it's always the same! It's not at all easy.

 no port-channel standalone-disable <<- add this 

then SHUT/NO SHUT the PO and check.
MHM

@MHM Cisco World 

we have a change in the status of the port from "suspended" to "stand-alone"

@MHM Cisco World 

wow!!!! I manage to ping the devices that are connected behind the AVAYA switch!!!!
yay

 

Without Mode ON (risky) with mode active and Ping success.

If Yes you are so welcome 

Note:- keep in your mind what I mention about ON when you want to use it in feature.

Have a nice summer 

MHM

@MHM Cisco World PO is still in mode " down"

But you can Ping ? 

@MHM Cisco World yes i can ping...
