Re: Layer 2 Tunneling for EtherChannels

First what is the specific task? Is it for SW1 to see SW4 as a CDP
neighbor? There should be a reason for the L2 tunnel. I really don't like
your etherchannel numbering. I know that etherchannel #'s don't have to
match at both ends, but I try to keep my configs that way for ease of
administration ie no to SW1 po4 to SW4 po1, yes to SW1 po14 to SW4 po14
