PortChannel Configuration
Figure 23-12 Create a PortChannel
Step 9 Change the channel ID or description for each switch, if necessary.
Step 10 Review the attributes at the bottom of the screen, and set them if applicable.
The following attributes are shown in Figure 23-12:
• VSAN List—This gives a list of VSANs to which the ISLs belong.
• Trunk Mode—You can enable trunking on the links in the PortChannel. Select trunking if your link
is between TE ports. Select nontrunking if your link is between E ports. Select auto if you are not
sure.
• Force Admin, Trunk, Speed, and VSAN attributes to be identical—This check box ensures that the
same parameter settings are used in all physical ports in the channel. If these settings are not
identical, the ports cannot become part of the PortChannel.
• Speed—The port speed values are auto, 1Gb, 2Gb, 4Gb, 8Gb, autoMax2G, and autoMax4G.
Step 11 Click OK.
The PortChannel is created. Note that it may take a few minutes before the new PortChannel is visible
in the Fabric pane.
