Error Message EC-5-ERRPROT: Channel protocol mismatch for interface [chars] in group
[dec]: the interface can not be added to the channel group.
Explanation
The interface cannot be added to the channel group with the specified mode. [chars] is
the interface, and [dec] is the channel group.
Recommended Action Change the channel group or the mode for the interface.
Error Message EC-5-ERRPROT2: Command rejected: the interface [chars] is already part
of a channel with a different type of protocol enabled.
Explanation
The interface cannot be selected for the specified protocol because it is already part of
a channel with a different type of protocol enabled. [chars] is the interface.
Recommended Action Remove the interface from the channel group.
Error Message EC-5-ERRPROT3: Command rejected: the interface [chars] is already part
of a channel.
Explanation
The interface cannot be unselected for the specified protocol because it is already part
of a channel group. [chars] is the interface.
Recommended Action Remove the interface from the channel group.
Error Message EC-5-NOLACP: Invalid EC mode, LACP not enabled.
Explanation
The EtherChannel mode cannot be set because LACP is not included in the software
image.
Recommended Action Install a software image that includes LACP, and set the EC mode to on.
Error Message EC-5-NOPAGP: Invalid EC mode, PAgP not enabled.
Explanation PAgP is not included in the Cisco IOS image and the EtherChannel mode cannot be set
to desirable or auto.
Recommended Action Obtain an image with PAgP included, or set the mode to on by using the
channel-group channel-group-number mode on interface configuration command.
Error Message EC-5-PORTDOWN: Shutting down [chars] as its port-channel is
admin-down.
Explanation The administrative state of the port is controlled by the administrative state of its
aggregate port. If the administrative state of the aggregate port is down, the administrative state of
the port is also forced to be down. [chars] is the physical interface.
Recommended Action Enter the no shutdown interface configuration command on the aggregate port
to activate the aggregation port.
