Information
Use the interface port-channel command to access this command.
You cannot add an interface to a Port Channel if the interface contains an IP address in its
configuration. Only the shutdown, description, mtu, and ip mtu commands can be configured on an
interface if it is to be added to a Port Channel. The mtu and ip mtu commands are only available when
the chassis is in Jumbo mode.
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.
Example: If the members have a link MTU of 2100 and an IP MTU 2000, the Port Channel’s MTU
values cannot be higher than 2100 for link MTU or 2000 bytes for IP MTU.
Note: The FTOS implementation of LAG or Port Channel requires that you configure a LAG
on both switches manually. For information on FTOS Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) for dynamic LAGs, refer to Chapter 29, Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).
For more information on configuring and using Port Channels, refer to the FTOS
Configuration Guide.
