You have a standard, default-configured Etherchannel trunk composed of SIX 1-Gigabit links connecting 2 workgroup/access-layer Cisco IOS Switches,
** If one of those 1-Gigabit links fails, what would be expected to happen?**
This could never happen because the maximum number of links in an Etherchannel trunk is 3
The plain-vanilla Etherchannel encapsulation would revert back to LACP ( IEEE 802.3ad )
The port channel cost would increase, since the bandwidth has decreased
An SNMP trap would be forwarded to the management station
A new STP Root Bridge election would take place immediately, because the loss of that link is considered an indication of instability
An SMTP alert would be forwarded to the management station
As bandwidth is removed from an Etherchannel, its port cost will increase.
