  • 1.  Ether-Channel between HP2848 Switches using Wireless Ethernet Bridges

    Posted Mar 09, 2010 05:49 AM
    Hi,We have two branch offices connected through Wireless Ethernet Bridges(20Mb/s & 10 Mb/s), with HP2848 on each branch.Currently only one of the links is operational. I want to utilize both radios so that their bandwidth could be bundled together.
    I have tried using ethernetchannel configuration (using LACP)but it's not working, as in this case one of the ports go down.
    Kindly someone suggest in this regard.

    Thx
    Tekkie!!

    to use LACP the links must be the same speed and duplex, in your case you can use TRUNK and it should work with no issues

    #trunk <INTERFACES> <TRK..> trunk

    </TRK..></INTERFACES>

    Dear Friend!!
    Basic problem is solved thx to your advise:)
    I just configured all switch ports attached to both Wireless Ethernet Bridges at each branch to:
    "speed-duplex 100-half
    no lacp
    trunk 43-44 Trk20 Trunk"
    Now the ether-channel is working & I can see traffic passing from both bridges.Athough im not sure whether the traffic is being distriuted equally.

    There is one problem,,redundancy is not working. When I disconnect one Bridge, the link to the branch goes down, & it does not come back up until I connect it back.
    I hope its a small problem now that the main problem of cascading both links is done.
    Really appreciate ur help!!

    Thx
