Command History
number Number of channel group. The number range is from 1 to 4096. Cisco
NX-OS creates the EtherChannel associated with this channel group if the
EtherChannel does not already exist.
mode (Optional) Specifies the EtherChannel mode of the interface.
active Specifies that when you enable the Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP), this command enables LACP on the specified interface. Interface is
in active negotiating state, in which the port initiates negotiations with other
ports by sending LACP packets.
on This is the default channel mode. All EtherChannels that are not running
LACP remain in this mode. If you attempt to change the channel mode to
active or passive before enabling LACP, the switch returns an error message.
After you enable LACP globally, by using the feature lacp command, you
enable LACP on each channel by configuring the channel mode as either
active or passive. An interface in this mode does not initiate or respond to
LACP packets. When an LACP attempts to negotiate with an interface in the
on state, it does not receive any LACP packets and becomes an individual
link with that interface; it does not join the channel group.
The default mode is on.
passive Specifies that when you enable LACP, this command enables LACP only if
an LACP device is detected. The interface is in a passive negotiation state,
in which the port responds to LACP packets that it receives but does not
initiate LACP negotiation.
Release Modification
