Hello,
I am trying to configure a Layer-3 etherchannel between a 6500 running CATOS (with MSFC Layer-3 card) and a 6500 IOS device.
IOS:
interface Port-channel2
description G7/1 & G7/2 Ether to HAVC6501 7/1 & 7/2
no switchport
ip address 10.5.3.177 255.255.255.252
!
interface GigabitEthernet7/1
description <cct ID> HAVC6501 G7/1 to Corporate Core
no switchport
channel-group 2 mode active
!
interface GigabitEthernet7/2
description <cct ID> HAVC6501 G7/2 to Corporate Core
no switchport
channel-group 2 mode active
!
CATOS:
set channelprotocol lacp 7
!
set vlan 403 7/1-2
set port lacp-channel 7/1-2 mode active
!
MSFC (IOS):
!
int vlan 403
Description /30_VLAN_to_HAVAGG_X650_01C_Po2
ip address 10.5.3.178 255.255.255.252
!
It works fine when its just a Layer-2 etherchannel at each end, but I can't get the Layer-3 working. Can anyone advise what is wrong, or how this should be configured?
Thanks

There is nothing wrong as such but unfortunately CatOS only supports L2 etherchanneling and not L3 so a switch in hybrid mode is limited to L2 etherchannels only.

I was hoping that wasn't the answer!.... I suppose the below may work instead?
6500 IOS
G7/1
descr To CATOS_6500_7/1
no sw
ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.252
ip load-sharing per-packet
!
G7/2
descr To CATOS_6500_7/2
no sw
ip address 10.1.0.1 255.255.255.252
ip load-sharing per-packet
!
6500 CATOS:
set vlan 403 7/1
set vlan 404 7/2
!
6500 MSFC:
interface vlan 403
descr To Ports_7/1
ip addres 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.252
ip load-sharing per-packet
!
interface vlan 404
descr To Ports_7/2
ip address 10.1.0.2 255.255.255.252
ip load-sharing per-packet
!
Thanks
