Etherchannel

An EtherChannel link using LACP was formed between two switches, S1 and S2. While verifying the configuration, which mode combination could be utilized on both switches?​

S1-passive and S2-active

When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel by the use of PAgP, which mode will form the bundled channel only if the port receives PAgP packets from another device?

auto

Which function is provided by EtherChannel?

creating one logical link by using multiple physical links between two LAN switches

What will happen if a network administrator puts a port that is part of an EtherChannel bundle into a different VLAN than the other ports in that bundle?

the etherchannel will fail

When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel, which mode will configure LACP so that it initiates the EtherChannel negotiation?

active

Which two mode combinations would result in the successful negotiation of an EtherChannel? (Choose two.)

active; passive desirable; desirable

Which three interface parameters must match for an EtherChannel to form?

allowed VLANs trunking mode native VLAN

PAgP

a messaging protocol defined by Cisco which enables two neighboring devices to realize that they have multiple parallel links connecting to each other, and then to decide which links can be combined into an EtherChannel.

802.3ad

a protocol used as a standard for using multiple transmission paths between servers, switches and routers in order to increase Ethernet transmission speed. It also adds resilience to the network so that if one line or port fails, the others continue to be available.

What are three advantages of using EtherChannel technology?

Configuration tasks can be done on the EtherChannel interface A spanning tree recalculation is not required when a single link with the channel goes down There is no need to upgrade link to father connection to increase bandwidth

Which statement is true about EtherChannel technology?

EtherChannel uses existing switch ports

A network administrator is configuring an EtherChannel link between two physical ports on a switch. Which statement describes the result when one of the physical ports fails?

The EtherChannel continues transmitting data with reduced bandwith

When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel, which mode will configure PAgP so that it initiates the EtherChannel negotiation?

desirable

When a range of ports is being configured for EtherChannel, which mode will configure LACP on a port only if the port receives LACP packets from another device?

passive

When EtherChannel is implemented, multiple physical interfaces are bundled into which type of logical connection?

port channel

Which two load balancing methods can be implemented with EtherChannel technology?

source IP to destination IP source MAC to destination MAC

Which two protocols are link aggregation protocols?
