For information on other configuration tasks for the EtherChannel, ref er to the
Cisco IOS Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
To assign Ethernet interfaces to the EtherChannel, perform the following procedure, beginning in global
configuration mode:
EtherChannel Configuration Example
Figure 9-1 shows an example of encapsulation over EtherChannel. The associated commands are
provided in Example 9-1 and Example 9-2.

Command Purpose
Step 1 Router(config)# interface fastethernet
number
Enters one of the interface configuration modes to
configure the Fast Ethernet interface that you want
to assign to the EtherChannel.
Step 2 Router(config-if)# channel-group
channel-number
Assigns the Fast Ethernet interface to the
EtherChannel. The channel number must be the
same channel number you assigned to the
EtherChannel interface.
Step 3 Router(config-if)# end Exits to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4 Router# copy running-config startup-config (Opti onal) Saves configuration changes to
