Explanation

On core-sw01, the interfaces use channel-group mode active, which enables LACP for the port channel. On core-sw02, the interfaces are configured only as trunk ports without enabling LACP (channel-group is missing). Since one side expects an LACP negotiation and the other side does not, the LACP negotiation fails, and the port-channel on core-sw01 goes into a suspended state.
