So i have two cisco switch that needs to be connected via etherchannel
Fastethernet 0/0 and 0/1 are to be used to form etherchannel on both switches.
The etherchannel will be a trunk and carry vlan 90,91,92.
Question:
Do i have to configure each switchports as below
interface fastethernet 0/0
switchport trunk encap dot1q
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan 91,92,93
channel-protocol lacp
channel-group 1 mode active
no shut
OR OR can i do it this way as well
interface fastethernet 0/0
channel-protocol lacp
channel-group 1 mode active
!
interface port-channel 1
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan 91,92,93
no shut
!
DOES these two methods achieve the same results.
How is it recommended?
If switchport trunk allowed vlan is applied on ether channel, is it automatically inherited by all bundled physical ports? If yes, why does it not show up on running config for physical interfaces?
Thank you for looking...

1. Actually i was asking for ccnp switch exam. it is a simulation, could you explain what kind of switch takes what kind of config
If this is for a Cisco Certification exam then you need follow the exact method and steps found in the book. Any other answers, no matter how correct and applicable they are "out there", is deemed an incorrect answer.

1. Depends on the model of the switch and the IOS level.
2. Are you ADDING an interface to the EtherChannel or are you creating a new one?
