Some commands cannot be used on a port in port-channel, such as arp, bandwidth,
ip, ip-forward, etc.
&
When port-channel is forced, as the aggregation is triggered manually, the port
group will stay unaggregated if aggregation fails due to inconsistent VLAN
information. Ports must be added to or removed from the group to trigger another
aggregation, if VLAN information inconsistency persists, the aggregation will fail
again. The aggregation will only succeed when VLAN information is consistent and
aggregation is triggered due to port addition or removal.
&
Verify that port group is configured in the partner end, and in the same configuration.
If the local end is set in manual aggregation or LACP, the same should be done in
the partner end; otherwise port aggregation will not work properly. Another thing to
be noted is that if both ends are configured with LACP, then at least one of them
should be in ACTIVE mode, otherwise LACP packet won’t be initiated.
&
LACP cannot be used on ports with Security and IEEE 802.1x enabled.
