Trunked Ports and resiliant Links

[Yarzie]

I am trying to get a pair of Trunk ports to be resiliant as well as load balanced. I seem to have the load balance bit but when I ping my server and pull out either of the UTPs on the ports the pings stop.

Here's the output. Both Switches are 3560G I have two 100mb links between them and several servers on one end.

interface GigabitEthernet0/47
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
bandwidth 10000000
duplex full
speed 1000
channel-group 1 mode auto
!
interface GigabitEthernet0/48
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
bandwidth 10000000
duplex full
speed 1000
channel-group 1 mode auto

You need to check to see if the etherchannel is even working , "show etherchannel detail" . Are you worried about a link between the 3560's ? If so set up the etherchannel links as "channel-group 1 mode desirable non-silent" on both sides. Verify etherchannel is working by using the show etherchannel detail and see if the channel is working correctly. My guess is that the etherchannel is not working corrctly and may just be an access port which will kill your conversation if you pull one of the links...
