This example shows how to verify the configuration of port-channel interface 2 after the interfaces have

been configured:

Switch# show etherchannel 2 port-channel
Port-channels in the group:
----------------------
Port-channel: Po2

Age of the Port-channel = 00h:23m:33s
Logical slot/port = 10/2 Number of ports in agport = 2
GC = 0x00020001 HotStandBy port = null
Port state = Port-channel Ag-Inuse
