Configuring Port Channels
Command or Action
Step 3
switch(config)# no interface port-channel
channel-number
This example shows how to create a port channel:
switch# configure terminal
switch (config)# interface port-channel 1
Adding a Port to a Port Channel
You can add a port to a new channel group or to a channel group that already contains ports. Cisco NX-OS
creates the port channel associated with this channel group if the port channel does not already exist.
Note
If you want LACP-based port channels, you need to enable LACP.

2. switch(config)# interface type slot/port
3. (Optional) switch(config-if)# switchport mode trunk
4. (Optional) switch(config-if)# switchport trunk {allowed vlan vlan-id | native vlan vlan-id}
