can not create Channel-Group between two switches PC5524
Hi there!
i've two switches Dell PC5524, and i want to create portchannel between them.
The configuration of two switches are as below:
SW01:
!
interface vlan 5
name USERS
!
interface vlan 6
name SERVERS
ip address 192.168.6.1 255.255.255.0
!
interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
channel-group 1 mode on
switchport mode trunk
switchport access vlan 6
!
interface gigabitethernet1/0/2
channel-group 1 mode on
switchport mode trunk
switchport access vlan 6
SW02:
!
interface vlan 5
name USERS
!
interface vlan 6
name SERVERS
ip address 192.168.6.2 255.255.255.0
!
interface gigabitethernet1/0/1
channel-group 1 mode on
switchport mode trunk
switchport access vlan 6
!
interface gigabitethernet1/0/2
channel-group 1 mode on
switchport mode trunk
switchport access vlan 6
Before, the ports gi1/01 and gi1/02...were part of vlan 6.
now, i tried to remove that configuration:
switchport access vlan 6
BUT I CAN NOT DELETE IT.
i tried again, when i put the configuration
channel-group 1 mode auto.
If i use only one port, with no portchannel configuration, and make it run in trunk mode, the two switches communicate normally with each other.
Now, what is my problem? and how can i fix it?
Regards!

Hi Daniel!
The problem is that i'm not forming port-channel between two switches.
I don't want those ports to be part of any VLAN...but i can not remove that settings.
So, my two switches, fail to form portchannel with each other.

I've said it by words:
i want to configure portchannel between two switches PC5524.
THe portchannel must be configured on two ports gi1/01 and gi1/02 (for redundancy and loadbalancing).
The problem is that with configuration i've listed on my frist post, this portchannel is not running.
See the image below.

why you suggest this on last:
# interface port-channel 1
# switchport mode access
# switchport access vlan 6
i thought we have to put the command:
# switchport mode trunk
not access.
also...what about the command
# channel-group 1 mode on
it must be like that or like this:
# channel-group 1 mode auto?
