pagp learn-method
Use the pagp learn-method interface configuration command to learn the source address of incoming
packets received from an EtherChannel port. Use the no form of this command to return to the default
setting.
Syntax Description
aggregation-port
physical-port
Defaults
The default is aggregation-port (logical port channel).

Usage Guidelines
The learn method must be configured the same at both ends of the link.
Note
The switch supports address learning only on aggregate ports even though the physical-port keyword is
provided in the command-line interface (CLI). The pagp learn-method and the pagp port-priority
interface configuration commands have no effect on the switch hardware, but they are required for PAgP
interoperability with devices that only support address learning by physical ports, such as the
Catalyst 1900 switch.
When the link partner to the switch is a physical learner, we recommend that you configure the switch
as a physical-port learner by using the pagp learn-method physical-port interface configuration
command and to set the load-distribution method based on the source MAC address by using the
port-channel load-balance src-mac global configuration command. Use the pagp learn-method
interface configuration command only in this situation.

pagp learn-method {aggregation-port | physical-port}
no pagp learn-method
Specify address learning on the logical port-channel. The switch sends
packets to the source using any of the ports in the EtherChannel. This setting
is the default. With aggregate-port learning, it is not important on which
physical port the packet arrives.
Specify address learning on the physical port within the EtherChannel. The
switch sends packets to the source using the same port in the EtherChannel
from which it learned the source address. The other end of the channel uses
the same port in the channel for a particular destination MAC or IP address.
