Show int capability might shed some light on what the interface differences
are.

I really have to understand why the 16A channel gets built.

All the trunking and port configs are correct. If they were wrong the logs
"should" show me what was broke.  Santa checked his list twice, I did it 10
times.


I do have the same config working, using a sup 10g port on another router as
a channel member, but it connects to nexus 7018.
In the broken case, both ends use a sup10g port and another X6708 port, but
they are not paired to same type at other end (sup-10g to sup-10g) vs
(sup-10g to X6708-10g ) not that it should matter.

So the only unique thing, is both ends are sup-720-10g in the broken case.
Its not the LACP proto since I tried  MODE ON with same problem.
What is also odd is when I disable one port of the channel, and do the "show
ether channel 16 summ", only the 16 is present with both port (one DOWN).
the 16A is gone.
As soon was I enable the other port the 16A shows up.

Whats odd is there is nothing in the log telling why the channel did not
come up correctly instead of this 16 and 16A .

Could it have something to do with using both 10G ports on the same sup, but
for different functions? One is for this channel the other is just an access
port.

I do not see this issue on a SXI5 box - see below.

You may want to try:

default interface Te13/1
default interface Te7/4

no inter port16
no inter port16a

interface Te13/1
channel-group 16 mode passive
interface Te7/4
channel-group 16 mode passive

- and then see what "show etherchannel summary" outputs...
