Creating an EtherChannel Host Interface
To connect to a downstream server from a Cisco Nexus 2000 Series Fabric Extender you can create a
EtherChannel host interface. An EtherChannel host interface can have only one host interface as a member
depending on the fabric extender model. The Cisco Nexus 2148T allows only one interface member per fabric
extender, newer fabric extenders allow up to 8 members of the same port-channel on a single fabric extender.
You need to create an EtherChannel host interface to configure a vPC on it that uses the Fabric Extender
topology.
Before You Begin
Ensure that you have enabled the vPC feature.
Ensure that the connected Fabric Extender is online.
