View the failover group configuration using the show running-configuration po-failover-group
command, as shown in the example below.

In the following illustration, LAGs 1 and 2 are members of a failover group. LAG 1 fails and LAG 2 is
brought down upon the failure. This effect is logged by Message 1, in which a console message declares
both LAGs down at the same time.
View the status of a failover group member using the command
show interface port-channel, as shown
in the following example.
R2#show interface Port-channel 2
