Re: Fast EtherChannel question
Hi! Because I can't find definite answers in the material I have, I wanted to post it in a form of a question and see what you all think. What are not features in fast etherchannel. a-load balancing b-full duplex c-up to six interfaces bundled d-hsrp e-fault tolerant c d, because EtherChannel improves both performance and availability. It gives additional bandwidth, by bandling up to 4 (2x or 4x) continuous for "simple" switches, or up to 8x non-coninuous on Catalyst 6000 both FEC or GEC interfaces, or 12 or 24 FEC on Catalyst 5000 and 5500 Series. --- WBW, xander CCNP+Voice, CCIE very soon :-) _ FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RE: Fast EtherChannel question
Strictly speaking load balancing is not feature of fast etherchannel. Fast etherchannel can only perform load sharing of traffic between bundled links. It looks at last bit (or last two bits on four port bundle) of mac addresses, performs xor and uses one link for entire traffic flow between that source and destination. - Tomaz Klemencic Hermes Plus, d.d., PE Celje Kersnikova 19, 3000 Celje +386-3-4284022 -Original Message- From: xndr [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, November 21, 2000 11:43 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Fast EtherChannel question Hi!

All correct, except upto 4 interfaces bundled. 4 is the maximum. A.
