How to verify Etherchannel or Link Aggregate status

Use the entstat command to get the aggregate statistics of all of the adapters in the EtherChannel.

For example, entstat ent3 will display the aggregate statistics of ent3. Adding the -d flag will also display the statistics of each adapter individually. For example, typing entstat -d ent3 will show you the aggregate statistics of the EtherChannel as well as the statistics of each individual adapter in the EtherChannel.

Note: In the General Statistics section, the number shown in Adapter Reset Count is the number of failovers. In EtherChannel backup, coming back to the main EtherChannel from the backup adapter is not counted as a failover. Only failing over from the main channel to the backup is counted.

In the Number of Adapters field, the backup adapter is counted in the number displayed.
