Cisco 2960 etherchannel suspended mode

Question

Here is the configuration:

Current configuration : 154 bytes
!
interface Port-channel1
 description TRUNK
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20
 switchport mode trunk
end


interface GigabitEthernet1/0/47
 description SW1
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20
 switchport mode trunk
 speed 1000
 duplex full
 channel-protocol lacp
 channel-group 1 mode active
end


interface GigabitEthernet1/0/48
 description SW1
 switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20
 switchport mode trunk
 speed 1000
 duplex full
 channel-protocol lacp
 channel-group 1 mode active
end

I have verified and other side of switch has same configuration. i have matched them word to word.

Here is the etherchannel summary

On switch port i have seen Amber light

In log i have seen:

Otherside switch SW1 i am seeing this.

interface status:

GigabitEthernet1/0/14 is down, line protocol is down (notconnect)

Answer 1

This often happens when you connect to an interface that doesn't have LACP enabled, as you have discovered. Using CDP or LLDP will tell you for sure what the interface on the other end is, assuming you have one of those enabled on both devices.
