config lacp_port
Purpose
Used to configure settings for LACP compliant ports.
Syntax config lacp_port <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 port or range of ports to be configured.
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.
• 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 and Operator and Power-User-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To configure LACP port mode settings:
show lacp_port
Purpose
Used to display current LACP port mode settings.
Syntax show lacp_port {<portlist>}
Description
This command will display the LACP mode settings as they are currently configured.
Parameters
<portlist> − Specifies a port or range of ports to be configured.
If no parameter is specified, the system will display the current LACP status for all ports.
Restrictions
None.
