You cannot add an interface to a Port Channel if the interface contains an IP address in its configuration.

Link MTU and IP MTU considerations for Port Channels are:
● All members must have the same link MTU value and the same IP MTU value.
● The Port Channel link MTU and IP MTU must be less than or equal to the link MTU and IP MTU values
configured on the channel members. For example, if the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP
