SRWE - Module 6 - EtherChannel

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

• S1-Auto S2-Auto
• S1-On S2-Desirable
• S1-On S2-Auto
• S1-Desirable S2-Auto
• S1-Auto S2-Passive

Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator is configuring an EtherChannel link between two switches, S1 and S2. Which statement describes the effect after the commands are issued on S1 and S2?

• Group 2 should be configured on S2
• The EtherChannel fails to establish due to different interfaces
• EtherChannel establishes using LacP
• EtherChannel establishes using PagP
• The EtherChannel is established without negotiation

What is a requirement to configure a trunking EtherChannel between two switches?

• The allowed range of VLANs must match on both switches
• Participating interfaces must be physically contiguous on a switch
• Participating interfaces must be assigned the same VLAN number on both switches
• Participating interfaces must be on the same module on a switch
• Management VLAN must have the same IP address on both switches

Which statement is true regarding the use of PAgP to create EtherChannels?

• It requires full duplex
• It is Cisco proprietary
• It increases the number of ports that are participating in spanning tree
• It mandates that even number of ports be used for aggregation
• It requires more physical links than LACP does

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

• Desirable; Passive
• Desirable; Desirable
• Passive; Auto
• Auto; Auto
• Active; Passive

Which two parameters must match on the ports of two switches to create a PAgP EtherChannel between the switches? (Choose two.)

• Speed
• MAC address
• Port ID
• VLAN information
• PAgP mode

A network administrator has configured an EtherChannel between two switches that are connected via four trunk links. If the physical interface for one of the trunk links changes to a down state, what happens to the EtherChannel?

• The EtherChannel will remain functional
• The EtherChannel will transition to a down state
• Spanning Tree Protocol will recalculate the remaing trunk links
• EtherChannel will loose two pairs of connections because even numbers of ports are used for aggregation
• Spanning Tree Protocol

Refer to the exhibit. An EtherChannel was configured between switches S1 and S2, but the interfaces do not form an EtherChannel. What is the problem?

• The switch ports were not configured with speed and duplex mode.
• The switch ports have to be configured as access ports with each port having a VLAN assigned.​
• The EtherChannel was not configured with the same allowed range of VLANs on each interface
• The channel groups are in the the incorrect mode
• The interface port-channel number has to be different on each switch

Which statement describes a characteristic of EtherChannel?

• It can combine up to a maximum of 6 physical links
• It is made by combining multiple physical links that are seen as one link between two switches
• It consists of multiple parallel links between a switch and a router
• It can bundle mixed types of 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps Ethernet links
• EtherChannel can not load balance

Refer to the exhibit. A network administrator issued the show etherchannel summary command on the switch S1. What conclusion can be drawn?

• FastEthernet ports Fa0/1, Fa0/2 and Fa0/3 do not join the EtherChannel
• The port aggregation protocol PAgP is misconfigured
• The EtherChannel is still in use
• The EtherChannel is suspended
• The EtherChannel is not functional
