EC Messages
Error Message EC-5-STAYDOWN: [chars] will remain down as its port-channel [chars] is
admin-down.
Explanation This message means that the administrative state of the aggregation port overrides that
of the affected port. If the aggregation port is administratively down, all ports in the aggregation port
are forced to be administratively down. The first [chars] is the physical interface, and the second
[chars] is the EtherChannel.
Recommended Action Enter the no shutdown interface configuration command on the aggregation
port to activate (unshut) the aggregation port.
Error Message EC-5-STAYDOWN: no-shut not allowed on [chars]. Module [dec] not online.
Explanation This message means that an interface with an EtherChannel configuration cannot be
enabled by using the no shutdown interface configuration command because it is a member of an
EtherChannel group and that EtherChannel group has been administratively shut down. The
interface has an EtherChannel configuration, but no information is available yet about its port
channel. [chars] is the interface, and [dec] is the module.
Recommended Action No action is required. Wait until the module is online to find out the
port-channel setting of the EtherChannel.
Error Message EC-5-UNBUNDLE: Interface [chars] left the port-channel [chars].
Explanation This message means that the listed interface left the specified EtherChannel. The first
[chars] is the physical interface, which can be a switch port, and the second [chars] is the
EtherChannel.
Recommended Action No action is required.
Error Message EC-5-UNSUITABLE: [chars] will not join any port-channel, [chars].
Explanation This message means that one of the interfaces cannot join the EtherChannel because it
is configured for PortFast, as a VLAN Membership Policy Server (VMPS), for IEEE 802.1x, as a
voice VLAN, or as a Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) destination port. All of these are illegal
configurations for EtherChannels. The first [chars] is the interface name, and the second [chars]
describes the details of the illegal configuration.
Recommended Action Reconfigure the port, removing the illegal configuration.
