Disabling an Etherchannel Lovejoy 05-01-07

I inherited 2 4006's running CaOS, that are linked together via an
etherchannel using the gbics on the supervisors. The uplink is
currently 100 Mb, and I want to upgrade it to a gig. I need to disable
the etherchannel so I can use the gbic as a gig uplink to the network.
Here is a snippet of the config :

Sw1 -

#frame distribution method
set port channel all distribution mac both
!
#port channel
set port channel 1/1-2 183
!
#module 1 : 2-port 1000BaseX Supervisor
set port trap 1/1-2 enable
set spantree portfast 1/1-2 disable
set spantree guard none 1/1-2
set port channel 1/1-2 mode desirable silent



sw2 -

#frame distribution method
set port channel all distribution mac both
!
#port channel
set port channel 1/1-2 125
!
#module 1 : 2-port 1000BaseX Supervisor
set port trap 1/1-2 enable
set spantree portfast 1/1-2 disable
set spantree guard none 1/1-2
set port channel 1/1-2 mode desirable silent





Is it as simple as :

set port channel all mode off
set port trap 1/1-2 disable
set port channel 1/1-2 mode off

... on both to disable? And then just configure a normal link between
the sups?


TIA
Lovejoy

I stand corrected, yes, mode off will do. You don't want to do all
unless you have no other channels configured. Provided the trunks or
connections are the same already, you don't need to configure a normal
link, it should just go back to standalone intra-connections.
