In case it matters - I'm using an Intel MFSYS25V2

Sure - thanks!

Here is the info for the command below:

ProdSW03# sho int stat port-channel 3

                                        Flow     Link

Ch       Type     Duplex   Speed   Neg       control   State

-------- ------- ------   -----   -------- -------   -----------

ch3       1G     Full     1000   Enabled   Off       Up

As for topology - I have Ports 1-4 connected to ports 1-4 of the Intel SW01.

ProdSW03 (5224) - Ports 1-4  > Intel Modular SW01 - Ports 1-4

ProdSW04 (5224) - Ports 1-4  > Intel Modular SW02 - Ports 1-4

The intel modular is a 6U blade server...with 2 internal switch modules.  Each blade has 4 NICs - 2 of which are handled by one switch module and the other 2 by the other switch module.

Can you run this command and provide the output?  Along with any other ports that are connecting to the server.

show interfaces status port-channel 3

Can you also provide a topology or describe what the ports are connecting too?

Excellent  

I was scratching my head on what options we would have on the 5224.

Thanks for letting us know

Thanks for such a quick response!!
