transparent.gif Issue Description

S5720 (V200R010C00SPC600) connect to Cisco Catalist 2960 by 2 links in eth-trunk. 
Configuration example - KB EKB1000435123 (for Cisco 4506) did not help to solve the issue.

Eth-trunk at Huawei – DOWN, at Cisco – UP.

Cisco Catalist 2960 diagnostic:

transparent.gif Handling Process

Huawei switch config:

interface Eth-Trunk11
 description Cisco2960-4-2
 port link-type trunk
 port trunk allow-pass vlan 3 8 21 30 to 31
 stp bpdu-filter enable
 stp edged-port disable
 mode lacp

interface GigabitEthernet0/0/14
 undo negotiation auto
 description Cisco2960-4-2_1
 eth-trunk 11

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/14
 undo negotiation auto
 description Cisco2960-4-2_2
 eth-trunk 11

Cisco 2960 switch config:

 interface Port-channel1
 description UpSwitch
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,3,8,21
 switchport mode trunk

interface GigabitEthernet1/0/25
 description UpSwitch_1
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,3,8,21
 switchport mode trunk
 channel-group 1 mode on
!
interface GigabitEthernet1/0/26
 description UpSwitch_2
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,3,8,21
 switchport mode trunk
 channel-group 1 mode on

transparent.gif Root Cause

As LACP is used in EtherChannel, at Cisco side interfaces must be added to EtherChannel in passive mode.

 

transparent.gif Solution

Modify Cisco switch configuration of port-channel group at member-Interface view :
channel-group 1 mode on ------>>> channel-group 1 mode passive

at first, I want to thank you very much. it is a good example, it shows us how huawei to configure eth-trunk with cisco.
I am very interested for this post, which is very helpful to our daily troubleshooting. I always have similar problems in my daily work, but I do not know how to deal with them. Now I have a clear idea. Thank you very much for your sharing. Hope you can update continue like this This post was last edited by Torrent at 2018-10-22 14:03.

The attributes on all member interfaces of an Eth-Trunk must be consistent and cannot be changed separately. If the preceding attributes of an Eth-Trunk are changed, the attributes of all the member interfaces are changed accordingly.

It is recommended that you run the shutdown (interface view) command to disable an interface before adding the interface to an Eth-Trunk. After adding interfaces at both ends of a link to an Eth-Trunk, run the undo shutdown (interface view) command to enable the interfaces. Otherwise, traffic interruption or broadcast storms may occur.

It is recommended that you run the shutdown (interface view) command to disable a member interface before running the undo eth-trunk command to remove the member interface from an Eth-Trunk.

The number of member interfaces of the Eth-Trunk on devices at both ends must be the same. The interfaces at both ends must be connected with straight-through cables. This post was last edited by SupperRobin at 2018-10-31 15:05.

The attributes include:

  • Link type
  • VLAN that the interface belongs to
  • VLAN mapping
  • VLAN stacking
  • QinQ protocol number
  • Interface priority
  • Whether the interface allows BPDUs to pass through
  • MAC address learning
  • Adding the interface to a multicast group statically
  • Discarding broadcast packets
  • Discarding unknown multicast packets
  • Discarding unknown unicast packets
  • Controllable multicast profile bound to the interface

In the case of such a docking cisco device, may I ask if you can share some of these cases, and this problem will often bother me. Especially in the positioning of this problem, thank you This post was last edited by Mark.hu at 2018-10-31 15:05.
