I got my ccna but if i have a question in my mind, first i check your channel. Your explanations are the clearest and your demonstrations have everything about that subject. I am glad that i found your channel. Thank you very much.

Your explanations are the clearest that I have ever seen. Thank you very much.

i want to thank you so much for the videos your post on this channel, i just got my ccna certification. i want to tell you i really appreciate your work !!!

Thank you for making this. Taking the CCNA two days from now and these are incredibly valuable for brushing up on my understanding of Cisco technologies and features.

You are amazing teacher. Everything becomes crystal clear after your explanation

For those trying to configure the etherchannel and getting a loop, try making all trunk ports in "switchport mode trunk" and not rely on DTP. (I think this is a Packet Tracer issue). I had the case were the packets are looping and I tried it and it works.

Cheers for the video mate! This has helped me a lot with understanding what the hell I'm doing in my practical this Friday!

Simple, clear and right on point. Thanks!

your tutorial was so much creative and genius . good job

Thank you sir, I am watching your vids when I forgot some configurations in my practice lab. This help me a lot. Keep on sharing your knowledge :) kudos to you.

Hi Dan! I recently took a CCNA bootcamp training here in Philippines and the training took only for 5 days and for me, I think, its impossible to master the CCNA in just 5 days for someone like me who's started as zero knowledge in networking. That is why I am watching your video tutorials for me to learn more and more to land a job as a network engineer or any networking related jobs. And its really helpful.. I just have a request, can you please send me the link of the topology you used in this video? or post it in this video description? Thank you very much sir Dan! Keep it up! More power! Godbless!

Your tutorial are very good.

Wow, your english is so good! ( I did understand everything) haha Thank for the lesson btw! It's amazing, and you too

Keep em rolling in. I need all this practice.

Thank you so much. You are genius!!!!!!!!! as you sharing your knowledge to other people.

Excellent, Thank so much to take your time to help others

Nice tutorial. Didn't know 2960s can auto-cross straight-through cable to work as crossover cable.

Thank you Dan, very good material

Thank you very much I really appreciate your time and efforts used in making us understand this topic. But next time, try to SHOW PORT LABELS coz some of us use it as guide thanks.

best explanation

Do I need to add allowed vlan's on the Trunk, Just switchport mode trunk works fine if multiple VLAN's are configured. For single VLAN's access mode works fine. Is it mandatory to make the port-channel trunk?

Packet tracer used to be abit of a 'optimal scenario' when learning switching.. maybe things have changed the last years.. but gns3 / real life hardware is the way to learn still? Or can one accomplish CCNA by Packet Tracer & interactive netacad studies without the hardware in real life?

Real english finally ! Thanks

Question please Hallo as I see , you have used three different protocolse , between s1& s2 you have used LACP , and between s2 & s3 you have used PAgp , also between s3 & s4 you have used Etherchannel Manual , ... my question is how if I use all three links in one protocol PAgP for example , did it work with me ,

Dan, i love your videos !!!

LAG port not deployment in Layer 3! correct? LAG/Port Channel only Layer 2 mode, Thank you very much.

I'm doing this exercise in PT6.3. I've followed the instructions as per the video, and when I try and Ping I get a broadcast storm on the arp, and I never get a response. Is this a problem with the PT6.3. I've gone over this several times, and get the same results.

Using Packet Tracer, Can you configure LACP on a network switch that doesn't have "Manage Capabilities"?

You are the best!

Having an issue when configuring the port-channels. When configuring one side as passive and the other side as active I get the I- stand-alone for the configured interfaces and not P (port in channel). Would you be so kind to tell me the reason for this?

Interface range not validated- command rejected how to fix it? What is wrong with it?

my question is what packet or information exchange with 2 switches to became Port-channel?

Is there anyway i can get of copy of the packet tracer file to follow along with you?

I have the same config as you but only one vlan ( 10 ) and two switches using LACP. The LACP is working and I have a pc in each end on the 192.168.10.0 /24 network. I've set switchport mode access and vlan 10 on both switches on the interface to the PCS. Also Trunk mode on the LACP etherchannel link with allowed vlan 10. I can't ping the PC on one side to the other, it just spams ARPS and never is able to ping. I've set no management ip on the switches and no default gateways for the pcs. Anyone got a clue?

Good video. I just want to ask why you are using Straight-through cables? it's supposed to be crossed-Over cables. Am I wrong?

STP does block the port while creating a logical link so should be disable stp or just connect the interfaces after configuration in packettracer

if I don't define vlan that can pass in trunk mode. can all vlans pass it?

Will you please tell me the difference between port channel and channel group ??

Same I configured but both side pc s are not reachable what was the issue

great work

Ok, question. Most of mine are between Cisco Switches and are set to nonnegotiate. Is this the desirable mode?

how do you configure load balancing based on src ip or src-dst ip?

download link is broken for packet tracer. Thanks for sharing none the less.

You're the best

is possible? like i have one gigabit switch and one fast ether switch can we do link aggregation between them?

Nice work,

Plz sir ,make video about syslog ,SNMP,Netflow ,NTP ,licensing.....

Thank You !!

hi, i have a one question ( i use packet tracer 6.2) I am setting up three switches connected together using rapid-pvst and only two switches want to configure LACP, I saw your explanation but what would be the switch S2 in your video when configuring LACP me blocking all ports but leaving forwarding Po1 root port really do not understand why this happens, I appreciate the help

thank you

Very good

Hi Dan, the download link is not working work.

Thankyou

No packet tracer file in below description ?

Come to Brazil!

Nice One

How can I get the file?

If you configure your parameters on the Interface instead of the Port-Channel... For instance if want to ADD a VLAN to that TRUNK.... You will create INCONSISTANCY and will lose your trunk link!!! Hopefully someone can be called over at the remote site... That can be told HOW to reboot that router... IN MALAYSIA!!! Hope they speak the language too !!! lol ;-)))

you do just one thing as favour, stop editing the text below it hides the current command you are typing

IT DOESN'T INCREASE BANDWIDTH.... channeling is for redundancy... so if u have 4 100mb connections bundled you still only have 100mb of bandwidth on that channel.

X wing iin Star War :p

sorry never mind, i got it. didn't click !
