Purpose
Configures the port in a channel group and sets the mode. The
channel-number range is from 1 to 4096. Cisco NX-OS creates the
EtherChannel associated with this channel group if the EtherChannel
does not already exist. This is called implicit EtherChannel creation.
(Optional)
Removes the port from the channel group. The port reverts to its
original configuration.
Purpose
Enters configuration mode.
