Layer 2 Network Topology without Proper Convergence
In an SP network, you can use Layer 2 protocol tunneling to enhance the creation of EtherChannels by
emulating a point-to-point network topology. When you enable protocol tunneling (PAgP or LACP) on
the SP switch, remote customer switches receive the PDUs and can negotiate the automatic creation of
EtherChannels.
