I believe that NE40(huawei router) is configured with VRRP and Layer 3 Port Channel,

so I tried to configure port channel(but only Layer 2..because of not capable of sub interface port chan/ needed because we have VLANS with IPs) for Gi0/25 & Gi0/26... the flapping is gone but some error appeared in NE40 router.See below.

FYI. Ne40 is a third party device.

Is it not possible to have Layer 2 and layer 3 portchannel connectivity? if not, based on above info what do you recommend?

Can you please help me guys. Thanks

I'd by asking you WHY are the two ports not in an etherchannel.

The switch is not capable of port channel subinterface, they want that I think because of routing config in router side(huawei NE40 that they needed to route in specific port channel sub interface).

What do you thing my friend?

The switch is not capable of port channel subinterface

Who said that?  All Cisco switches are capable of port channel. 

Yes I can do port channel, I mean the command for example

config t

int port-channel 11.250

is not working

See below Thread https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2070565

int port-channel 11.250

Errrr ... You are doing SUB-INTERFACE on a portchannel.  Why not do portchannel?

When I do portchannel, VRRP error in router stated to appear . See below.

The router Guys said that they configured it with L3 portchannel

This could be why, a Layer 3 port channel needs an IP address in the same subnet as the Router end.

You were/are using a L2 Trunk port.

Is the router acting as the default gateway for any of your Vlans?

If so, a Layer 3 port channel will create an issue for you.

If not, create a L3 port channel and set the Cisco switch to have a default route pointing to the router as its next hop.

Layer 3 etherchannel.  Right. 

Go here:  Configuring Layer 3 EtherChannels

They are using subinterface portchannel. Can you verify their confgi ? See NE40 config below

I can't comment on Huawei because I have never used one. 

Can you try to get the Huawei router to do just Layer 2 etherchannel and observe?

The switch is recieving frames with the same source MAC address from both trunk links.

Think about the switches CAM table, it needs an entry for MAC Address 1111.2222.3333 so it knows which port to forward frames out of destined for this address. Currently it is seeing frames from ports 25 and 26 with this source MAC so what does it add to its CAM table??

This would be fine if they were part of a port channel but not when they are standard L2 trunks.

There is a misconfiguration somewhere. Can you advise on the config on the router side??

As this is not a Cisco Router, they are using LACP for thier port-channel. I know nothing about Huawei but I suspect you need to create a L3 LACP Port channel

#interface Po1
no switchport

#ip address

#interface GigabitEthernet0/25
#no swichport

#no ip address

#channel-group 1 mode active

#interface GigabitEthernet0/26

#no swichport

#no ip address

#channel-group 1 mode active

As per IP core, that's their standard //to have layer 3 portchannel-subinterface

BTW thanks guys
