Re: Fast Ether Channel [7:45271]
I believe that will all currently supported hardware, FE or GE are the minimum requirements. You should be able to run it at any supported speed, as long as both ends match. Some of the older switches like the Cat3000 supported EtherChannel on 10Mb interfaces. While you can still find these switches, they have reached End Of Life. As far as routers, only the larger hardware like the 7x00 series and the router modules for the Cat5K/Cat6K support etherchannel. As far as I have been able to determine, it's not supported on 10Mb router interfaces at all. I haven't verified this absolutely, though. Thanks, Shawn "Michael L.

Re: Fast Ether Channel [7:45271]
I appreciate your information, Joseph. I guess my question was more toward the types of interfaces that will run etherchannel. i.e. if you're knocking the speed down on a FastEthernet interface to 10Mbps, it's still a FastEthernet interface, not Ethernet interface. One of the requirements for an etherchannel bundle is that all of the ports (interfaces) in the bundle all be matching speed/duplex. So it would make sense that you could knock 100Mbps interfaces down to 10Mbps (as long as they all match) and it still work. But are they any Ethernet interfaces (not Fast- or Gig-Ethernet) on any Cisco devices that support Etherchannel. I'm thinking there's not, but that's not to say there's not some switch/router out there that may violate this Cisco "rule of thumb" (being you can only do EtherChannel on Fast- or Gig-Ethernet) Mike W.

RE: Fast Ether Channel [7:45271]
Mike, Here is a whitepaper on Fast EtherChannel (please continue reading). It talks about Kalpana switches, where Cisco acquired the technology from, and their use of EtherChannel in the early 90s. (look under the title Fast EtherChannel Components, it's in the first paragraph) http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/techno/media/lan/ether/channel/tech/ fetec_wp.htm I don't think there were many Cisco switches that supported EtherChannel. Kalpana switches did (EPS-2015 is one I can think of) and the Catalyst 3000, which was just a Kalpana switch anyway. I bet you could hard set the port speed and duplex on a couple of ports of a 2900-XL or 3500-XL to 10Mbps and setup an EtherChannel group if you really needed to test it. I hope this helps.

Though this wasn't my post I also said yes to 10M channeling but realized my mistake upon seeing the first reply mentioning no support for 10M channels. Miller time!! Dave "Michael L.

Do you have any documents or URLs that talk more about the etherchannel (that allows you to use 10Mbps ethernet in a bundle). I'm not saying I don't believe you, but twice today I've searched Cisco's website to find info on it, and I can't find anything but references to Fast- and Gig-Etherchannel I even did a Google search on 'etherchannel' and of the non-Cisco websites that came up, they still indicated it would only work on 100/1000Mbps ethernet Thanks!

Re: Fast Ether Channel [7:45271]
Fast Etherchannel is just that: Fast Ethernet (100mbs). There is EtherChannel, Fast EtherChannel and Gigabit EtherChannel. What do you mean by support? If your question is, can I have different types on each end of a link, the answer is no.
