Chapter 6 Configuring PortChannels

Configuration Examples for F and TF PortChannels

switch(config-if)# switchport mode NP switch(config-if)# no shut switch(config-if)# exit

Step 6 Configure the PortChannel member interfaces on the NPV switch in dedicated mode:

switch(config)# interface fc3/1-3 switch(config-if)#shut switch(config-if)#switchport mode NP switch(config-if)#switchport speed 4000 switch(config-if)#switchport rate-mode dedicated switch(config-if)#switchport trunk mode on switch(config-if)#channel-group 2 switch(config-if)#no shut switch(config-if)#exit

Step 7 Set the administrative state of all the PortChannel member interfaces in both NPIV core switch and the NPV switch to ON:

switch(config)# interface fc1/4-6switch(config-if)# shut switch(config-if)# no shut

switch(config)# interface fc3/1-3switch(config-if)# shut switch(config-if)# no shut
