Step5 In the system configuration, create the new logical interfaces according to the “Configuring a Redundant
Interface” section on page12-26 or the “Configuring an EtherChannel” section on page 12-29. Be sure
to enter the no shutdown command on any additional physical interfaces you want to use as part of the
logical interface.
Note You can only add physical interfaces to an EtherChannel or redundant interface; you cannot have
VLANs configured for the physical interfaces.
Be sure to match physical interface parameters such as speed and duplex for all interfaces in a
given EtherChannel or redundant interface. Note that the duplex setting for an EtherChannel
interface must be Full or Auto.
For example, the new configuration is:
System
interface GigabitEthernet0/0
channel-group 1 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/1
channel-group 2 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/2
channel-group 1 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/3
channel-group 1 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/4
channel-group 2 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/5
channel-group 2 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface Management0/0
channel-group 3 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface Management0/1
channel-group 3 mode active
no shutdown
!
interface port-channel 1
interface port-channel 2
interface port-channel 3
Step6 Change the interface allocation per context to use the new EtherChannel or redundant interfaces. See the
“Configuring a Security Context” section on page11-19.
