L2 - L3 Etherchannel

Wed Apr 8 18:03:33 UTC 2009

Hi All,

Is it possible to create L2 Etherchannel at one end and L3 etherchannel at
another end?

For Example:

SW-1
====

interface GigabitEthernet1/1
 channel-group 1 mode desirable
 channel-protocol pagp
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
 channel-group 1 mode desirable
 channel-protocol pagp
!
interface Port-channel 1
 no ip address
 switchport
 switchport access vlan 10
 switchport mode access
!
int vlan10
 ip address 1.1.1.1 255.255.255.252
!
------------------------------------

SW-2
====

interface Port-channel 2
 ip address 1.1.1.2 255.255.255.252
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/1
 no ip address
 channel-group 2 mode desirable
 channel-protocol pagp
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/2
 no ip address
 channel-group 2 mode desirable
 channel-protocol pagp
!

I don't have a lab to test it, can somebody confirm if the connectivity will
work between these devices as per this setup.

Thanks,
Amolak
