Relationship to Other Features
Link aggregation groups are supported by other switch software features. The following features have CLI
commands or command parameters that support link aggregation:
• VLANs. For more information on VLANs see Chapter 4, “Configuring VLANs.”
• 802.1Q. For more information on configuring and monitoring 802.1Q see Chapter 4, “Configuring
VLANs.”
• Spanning Tree. For more information on Spanning Tree see Chapter 8, “Configuring Static Link
Aggregation.”
Configuring Static Link Aggregation Groups
This section describes how to use OmniSwitch Command Line Interface (CLI) commands to configure
static link aggregate groups. See “Configuring Mandatory Static Link Aggregate Parameters” on page 8-6
for more information.
The OmniSwitch implementation of link aggregation software is preconfigured with the default values for
static aggregate groups as shown in the table in “Static Link Aggregation Default Values” on page 8-2. If
you need to modify any of these parameters, please see “Modifying Static Aggregation Group Parameters”
on page 8-9 for more information.
Configuring Mandatory Static Link Aggregate Parameters
When configuring static link aggregates on a switch you must perform the following steps:
1 Create the Static Aggregate Group on the Local and Remote Switches. To create a static aggregate
group use the linkagg static agg size command, which is described in “Creating and Deleting a Static
Link Aggregate Group” on page 8-7.
2 Assign Ports on the Local and Remote Switches to the Static Aggregate Group. To assign ports to
the static aggregate group you use the linkagg static port agg command, which is described in “Adding
and Deleting Ports in a Static Aggregate Group” on page 8-7.
Note. See “Application Example” on page 8-10 for tutorials on using link aggregation with other features.
Note. See “Quick Steps for Configuring Static Link Aggregation” on page 8-3 for a brief tutorial on
configuring these mandatory parameters.
Note. See the “Link Aggregation Commands” chapter in the OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 CLI Reference
Guide for complete documentation of CLI commands for link aggregation.
Note. Depending on the needs of your network you need to configure additional parameters. Commands to
configure optional static aggregate parameters are described in “Modifying Static Aggregation Group
Parameters” on page 8-9.
