[f-nsp] Link Aggregation between Foundry and Cisco

[Joseph Hardeman]

Hi Everyone,

I am having a bit of an issue, I have gotten a pair of Cisco 6509's with 
the SUP-720 engines.  I am trying to configure link aggregation between 
one of these to a BI4000 I have to test with before we put them into 
production and connect them to our BI8000's and fight this problem 
then.  I have been searching and looking at the docs I have.  The 
configuration I have on the Cisco's allow them to talk over the port 
channels between each other with no issues.

I can setup the command "link-aggregation active" on port "ethe 1/5" 
with no issues it takes the command, but when I go to add a test VLAN on 
to that port I get the following error message:

error - some ports are running LACP and can not be tagged ports.

Here is the command I am running on the BI:

test(config)#int e 1/5
test(config-if-e1000-1/5)#link-aggregate configure key 10000
test(config-if-e1000-1/5)#link-aggregate active
test(config-if-e1000-1/5)#exit
test(config)#vlan 14
test(config-vlan-14)#tagged e 1/5
error - some ports are running LACP and can not be tagged ports.
test(config-vlan-14)#end

Here is the output of sh int e 1/5"

Output of sh link-aggregation:
Long  timeout: 90, default: 90
Short timeout: 3, default: 3
Port  [Sys P] [Port P] [ Key ] [Act][Tio][Agg][Syn][Col][Dis][Def][Exp][Ope]
1/5        1        1       0   Yes   S   Agg  Syn  Col  Dis  Def  No   Blo


So my question is what am I missing here?   From everything I found, all 
I have to do after setting 1 or more ports into a link-aggregation is to 
add the VLAN's as tagged to the ports with the same key.  But its not 
allowing me to add the tagged vlans.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Joe
