Chapter 6 Configuring PortChannels

Verifying PortChannel Configuration

port-channel	77:
2 ports,	first operational port is none
fcip1	[down]
fcip2	[down]
port-channel	78:

fc2/1	[down]
fc2/5	[down]
port-channel	79:

...

The show port-channel usage command displays details of the used and unused PortChannel numbers.

Example 6-6 Displays the PortChannel Usage

switch# show port-channel usage

Totally 3 port-channel numbers used

===================================

Used : 77 - 79

Unused: 1 - 76 , 80 - 256

Example 6-7 Displays the PortChannel Compatibility

switch# show port-channel compatibility-parameters

physical	port	layer	fibre channel or ethernet
port	mode		E/AUTO only

trunk mode speed port VSAN

port allowed VSAN list

Use the existing show commands to obtain further details on autocreated channel group attributes. Autocreated PortChannels are indicated explicitly to help differentiate them from the manually created PortChannels. See Examples 6-8to 6-10.

Example 6-8 Displays Autocreated PortChannels

switch# show interface fc1/1 fc1/1 is trunking

Hardware is Fibre Channel, FCOT is short wave laser Port WWN is 20:0a:00:0b:5f:3b:fe:80

...

Receive data field Size is 2112 Beacon is turned off

Port-channel auto creation is enabled

Belongs to port-channel 123

...

Example 6-9 Displays the Specified PortChannel Interface

switch# show port-channel database interface port-channel 128 port-channel 128

	Administrative channel	mode is active
	Operational channel mode is active
	Last membership update	succeeded
	Channel is auto created
