Hi guys,
I want to test the aggregation bandwidth on the MDS 9148, How can we do it?
I tried to do it via below command:
In Config mode:
feature fport-channel-trunk
Feature npv
Switch A-
interface port-channel 10
channel mode active
switchport mode NP
switchport trunk allowed vsan 1
switchport rate-mode dedicated
switchport trunk mode on
interface fc1/1-2
switchport mode NP
switchport trunk mode on
port-license acquire
channel-group 10 force
no shutdown
But my port is not showing me bundled speed, as expected 16 Gbps, because one having 8 Gbps bandwidth.
Thanks

Are you connecting this MDS 9148 (NPV mode) to another switch, running in NPIV mode ?
Can you please post output of "show interface fc 1/1 - 2" and port-channel 10....

hi walter,
We want to test port aggregation. So we are trying to port channeling with 4 port and will show the client 4x8 Gbps =32Gbps output.
Following this document.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/mds9000/sw/5_2/configuration/guides/int/nx-os/cli_interfaces/pc.html#97250
Will share you soon port details.
Thanks

Hi Ashish
I hope we talk about the same ? there is E PortChannels and F and TF PortChannels !
We talk about F and TF PortChannels !
Note If a Cisco MDS 9124 or 9134 switch is used as a core switch, only a nontrunking F PortChannel is supported. Trunking is not supported on this platform when NPIV enabled.
That's why I asked you what kind of switch is running NPIV ?
Walter.

Hi Walter,
Thanks for your support.
I done it today after port channeling with 8 port with single port-channel.
and we get the output 64Gbps as below output.
San(config-if)# sh inter po 10
port-channel 10 is trunking
Hardware is Fibre Channel
Port WWN is 24:0a:00:2a:6a:d1:18:58

Port vsan is 1
Speed is 64 Gbps
