Configuring PortChannel

You can use the port-channel command to create groups of tool ports and provide traffic load-balancing. By default, symmetric hashing is enabled for IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, redirecting the source-destination pair to the same tool-connected port.

Reference

Command	port-channel <channelid>ports<portname>[description<string>] no port-channel <channelid>ports
Description	Port-channel configuration
Parameters	channelid - within 1 to 16 portname - valid interface names delimited by (,) string - a maximum of 50 characters, within double quotes
Mode	CONFIG

PortChannel can only be configured as a Tool port in a flow

Example

pbnoscli# configure terminal  
pbnoscli(config)# port-channel 1 
  ports                 Add physical ports to port channel
pbnoscli(config)# port-channel 1 ports 
  <portname>            Add ports (Add multiple ports comma delimited)
pbnoscli(config)# port-channel 1 ports Ethernet63/1,Ethernet64/1
pbnoscli(config)# 

pbnoscli(config)# no port-channel 1 ports 
pbnoscli(config)# 

You can verify the configuration by using the command(s) below:
