Shine,

Will there be issue if I dont have the commands under the port-channel??

I am curious to know this ... since I tested without the commands under
the port-channel and it works (since this trunks are between two
switches ; I am able to pass VLAN traffic between these switches)

_*SW1*_

interface range fa 0/1 -2
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
chanel-group 25 mode on

Interface port-channel 25

_*SW2*_

interface range fa 0/1 -2
switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport mode trunk
chanel-group 25 mode on

Interface port-channel 25
