D-Link DES-3326S Layer 3 Switch CLI Reference
config lacp_ports
Purpose Used to configure settings for LACP compliant ports.
Syntax
config lacp_ports <portlist> mode [active|passive]
Description This command is used to configure ports that have been
previously designated as LACP ports (see create
link_aggregation).
Parameters
<portlist> − Specifies a range of ports to be configured. The port
list is specified by listing the beginning port number and the
highest port number of the range. The beginning and end of the
port list range are separated by a dash. For example, 3 specifies
port 3. 4 specifies port 4. 3-4 specifies all of the ports between
port 3 and port 4 − in numerical order. Up to 6 ports can be
linked.
mode – Select the mode to determine if LACP ports will process
LACP control frames.
active – Active LACP ports are capable of processing and
sending LACP control frames. This allows LACP compliant
devices to negotiate the aggregated link so the group may be
changed dynamically as needs require. In order to utilize the
ability to change an aggregated port group, that is, to add or
subtract ports from the group, at least one of the participating
devices must designate LACP ports as active. Both devices must
support LACP. Only one side is designated active while the other
side is designated passive.
passive – LACP ports that are designated as passive cannot
process LACP control frames. In order to allow the linked port
group to negotiate adjustments and make changes dynamically,
at one end of the connection must have “active” LACP ports (see
above).
Restrictions Only administrator-level users can issue this command.
Note: For LACP implementations, both devices utilizing the aggregated link
must support IEEE 802.1ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol and one
device must designate the participating ports as “active” while this other
device must designate the participating ports as “passive”.
Example usage:
To configure LACP port mode settings:
DES-3226S:4#config lacp_port 1-12 mode active
Command: config lacp_port 1-12 mode active
Success.
DES-3226S:4#
