Lab Objective: EtherChannel is a technique used to bundle multiple physical links into a single logical link to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy. Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is a dynamic protocol used to manage EtherChannel configurations. This lab will guide you through the configuration and verification of Layer 3 EtherChannel using LACP, and include a failover test to ensure continuous connectivity. The objective of this lab is to: Configure Layer 3 EtherChannel using LACP. Verify the EtherChannel configuration. Ensure proper load balancing and redundancy. Perform a failover test to ensure continuous connectivity in case of a link failure Lab Info: Lab Tasks, Topology, Lab Solution and Packet Tracer (Pre/Post) Labs can be found in the link below: https://ieverythingeverywhere.com/lab...
