Hi
Has anyone succeeded in configuring a stable 2 gigs etherchannel between a ubr10k and a cisco switch
We have tried several hardware and we cannot get a viable solution
we tried the
The best we could do is have a working etherchannel if we configure it after a reboot and we lose it if we reboot
this is cisco issue CSCsx46105
we have tried
SPA-5X1GE-V2
and
ESR-HH-1GE
if not what solution did you use to go over 1gig of data ?
yes I have succeeded in doing this, and yes it took quite a while to get right.
the other option is switch to a 10G interface, which I would do in a heartbeat if I could get the powers that be to pay for it.

I would also switch to a 10Gig SPA if possible. (eBay?)
We had finally 2x 4x1Gig Uplink Bonding as there can only 4x1Gig be bonded. (PRE4 with 2x 5x1Gig SPA)
But we had a Foundry RX8 on the other side.
We ran a two-member static LAG for a while and are currently doing so on our lab 10K. I've found the port-channel to be stable and perform reliably, but if we reboot the switch it's connected to (Procurve), the port-channel doesn't come back up unless we reload the CMTS. Reloading the controller may do it too, but I don't recall.
