I've created network storm and unaccessible switches :/ I didn't configure interfaces properly and take out whole network in my company. From the switches side - there was configured a port channel made up from two links.

Here is my configuration. Is this really so easy to take out two enterprise switches or network guys didn't configure port channel properly?
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet manual
bridge_ports eth1 eth2
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0
bridge_vlan_aware yes

auto vmbr0.666
iface vmbr0.666 inet static
address 10.0.0.2
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.0.0.1
 
You connected two interfaces to a bridge in linux, you created a loop, you have stp turned off too, which could have prevented the issue.

I dont see any LAG/LACP configuration.
