For Port Channel to work properly, member ports of the Port Channel must have the same
properties as the following:
) All ports in full duplex mode.
) Ports are of the same speed.
) All ports are Access ports and belong to the same VLAN or are all Trunk ports.
) If the ports are Trunk ports, then their “Allowed VLAN” and “Native VLAN”
property should also be the same.
If Port Channel is configured manually or dynamically on ES4626/ES4650, the system will
automatically set the port of the smallest number to be Master Port of Port Channel. If
spanning tree is enabled in the switch, spanning tree protocol will regard Port Channel as
a logical port and sent BPDU frames via the master port.
Port aggregation is closely related with the switch hardware. ES4626/ES4650 series allow
physical port aggregation of any two switches, maximum 8 port groups and 8 ports in each
port group are supported.
Once ports are aggregated, they can be used as a normal port. ES4626/ES4650 has
built-in aggregation interface configuration mode, the user can perform related
configuration in this mode just like in the VLAN and physical port configuration mode.
10.2 Port Channel Configuration
10.2.1 Port Channel Configuration Task Sequence
1． Create a port group in Global Mode.
2． Add ports to the specified group from the Port Mode of respective ports.
3． Enter port-channel configuration mode.
1. Creating a port group
2. Add physical ports to the port group
Command Explanation
Global Mode
port-group <port-group-number> [load-balance
{ src-mac | dst-mac | dst-src-mac | src-ip|
dst-ip|dst-src-ip}]
no port-group <port-group-number > [ load-balance]
Create or delete a port
group and set the load
balance method for that
group.
