Zorluk: ZorLayer 2 and Layer 3 EtherChannel (LACP)

A network engineer is configuring a routed (Layer 3) EtherChannel between two Cisco Catalyst switches, Switch-1 and Switch-2, across physical interfaces GigabitEthernet 0/1 and GigabitEthernet 0/2. Switch-1 is configured with LACP in active mode (`channel-group 10 mode active`). Which TWO requirements must be met to correctly establish and operate this Layer 3 LACP EtherChannel bundle? (Select two choices.)

  1. The `no switchport` command must be applied to both the logical interface Port-channel 10 and the physical member interfaces prior to configuring the IP address.Cevap
  2. Switch-2 physical member interfaces can be configured with `channel-group 10 mode passive` to negotiate the LACP bundle successfully.Cevap
  3. C
    Switch-2 physical member interfaces must be configured with `channel-group 10 mode auto` to dynamically form the link bundle with Switch-1.
  4. D
    Individual IP addresses must be assigned directly to physical member interfaces GigabitEthernet 0/1 and GigabitEthernet 0/2 to enable routing across both bundle members.

Cevap

The correct requirements are converting both the physical member interfaces and the logical port-channel interface to Layer 3 using the 'no switchport' command before assigning the IP address, and configuring Switch-2 in LACP passive mode (or active mode) to pair with Switch-1 active mode.
For Layer 3 EtherChannels, physical member ports and the port-channel interface must be configured as routed interfaces via `no switchport`, and the IP address is assigned to the logical port-channel interface. Furthermore, LACP allows dynamic bundle establishment when one side is in active mode and the peer side is in passive mode.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate Layer 3 EtherChannel interface configuration requirements.
Layer 3 EtherChannels require member interfaces and the port-channel interface to have switchport functionality disabled using `no switchport`. The IP address is configured on the Port-channel interface, not on individual member interfaces.
Physical member ports inherit Layer 3 configurations from the logical port-channel.
2
Analyze protocol compatibility for LACP mode negotiation.
LACP uses modes `active` and `passive`. Active-Active and Active-Passive pairings form LACP bundles. Modes `auto` and `desirable` belong to PAgP and cannot interoperate with LACP.
Mixing LACP and PAgP protocols prevents EtherChannel formation.
