Re: Help with Etherchannel
I know that some of the older compaq NIC's don't support it (we tried it here and no dice)... so you might want to check your NIC's. Cheers, Jeff **NOTE: New CCNA/CCDA List has been formed.

Re: Help with Etherchannel
The NICS I have support Etherchannel, IN fact they say they are configured as a Etherchannel, but the switch does not seem to recognize the bundle as STP blocks or disables one of the ports.

Re: Help with Etherchannel
I think that the Etherchannel configuration is working correctly. After placing two ports in a port group, oneof the ports shows that STP is "disabled" and the other shows that it is in a forwarding state. I believe this is correct and that the switch only allows one of the ports in the group to participate in STP. Please correct me if I am mistaken. Thanks, Lonnie ""Lonnie Paschall"" [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 8qdf8r$s5r$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:8qdf8r$s5r$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... I have a 2916XL that is connected to a compaq server with two NC3130 NIC cards and is configured for Cisco Etherchannel. I placed the two contigous ports in a port group. When I look at the switch both interfaces are up, the switch shows that they are both in group 1 but one port is in blocking mode while the other is forwarding. Shouldnt they both be in forwarding mode? I am not sure if the Etherchannel is working. I have the same sort of problem when I try to connect a 1900XL EN to the 2916 switch via etherchannel (two bundles), one port always goes into blocking mode or shows disabled .

Re: Help with Etherchannel
You don't want the NIC's configured as trunked ports, or probably EtherChannel for that matter as it used between switches. I would try and configure them on the server.
