EtherChannel in Packet Tracer 6.2 - Part 1

Is there anyway i can get of copy of the packet tracer file to follow along with you?

How can I get the file?

Interface range not validated- command rejected how to fix it? What is wrong with it?

Your explanations are the clearest that I have ever seen. Thank you very much.

Simple, clear and right on point. Thanks!

download link is broken for packet tracer. Thanks for sharing none the less.

X wing iin Star War :p

Hi Dan, the download link is not working
work.

LAG port not deployment in Layer 3! correct? LAG/Port Channel only Layer 2 mode,
Thank you very much.

if I don't define vlan that can pass in trunk mode. can all vlans pass it?

For those trying to configure the etherchannel and getting a loop, try making all trunk ports in "switchport mode trunk" and not rely on DTP. (I think this is a Packet Tracer issue). I had the case were the packets are looping and I tried it and it works.

Do I need to add allowed vlan's
on the Trunk,
Just switchport mode trunk works fine if multiple VLAN's are configured.

For single VLAN's access mode works fine.
Is it mandatory to make the port-channel trunk?

great work

how do you configure load balancing based on src ip or src-dst ip?

:)

STP does block the port while creating a logical link so should be disable stp or just connect the interfaces after configuration in packettracer

If you configure your parameters on the Interface instead of the Port-Channel...
For instance if want to ADD a VLAN to that TRUNK....
You will create INCONSISTANCY and will lose your trunk link!!!
Hopefully someone can be called over at the remote site...
That can be told HOW to reboot that router... IN MALAYSIA!!!
Hope they speak the language too !!! lol ;-)))
