• Eight aggregated links can be defined with up to 8 member ports per port channel.Turning off
auto-negotiation of an aggregate link may, under some circumstances, make it non-
operational. If the other side has auto-negotiation turned on, it may re-synchronize all
members of the aggregated link to half-duplex operation, and may, as per the standards, set
them all to inactive.
