Refer to the exhibit. An engineer is configuring an EtherChannel using LACP between Switches 1 and 2. Which configuration must be applied so that only Switch 1 sends LACP initiation packets?

The correct answer is C. Switch1(config-if)#channel-group 1 mode active. Active mode - the interface is in an active negotiating state. LACP runs on any link that is configured to be in the active state. The port in an active mode also automatically initiates negotiations with other ports by initiating LACP packets. Passive mode - the interface is not

Explanation

Active mode - the interface is in an active negotiating state. LACP runs on any link that is configured to be in the active state. The port in an active mode also automatically initiates negotiations with other ports by initiating LACP packets. Passive mode - the interface is not in an active negotiating state. LACP runs on any link that is configured in a passive mode. The port in a passive mode responds to negotiations requests from other ports that are in an active mode. Ports in passive mode respond to LACP packets.
