8.2.2.2 Distribution Mode
If packets enter to logical port aggregating several ports and there’s no way to decide
packet route, the packets could be gathered on particular member port so that it is not
possible to use logical port effectively.
Therefore, the V5808 is configured to decide the way of packet route in order to distribute
(or forward) packets to the member port effectively when packets enter. It is decided with
Source IP address, destination IP address, source MAC address, destination MAC
address and the user could get information of packets to decided packet route. dstip is
destination IP address and dstmac means destination MAC address.
For the V5808, a source destination MAC address is basically used to decide packet
route.
After configuring an LACP aggregator, you should configure the distribution mode. The
following is the command for configuring the distribution mode of the LACP aggregator.
lacp aggregator distmode
AGGREGETIONS {srcmac |
dstmac | srcdstmac | srcip |
dstip | srcdstip}
Configures the distribution mode of the LACP
aggregator:
AGGREGATIONS: aggregator ID( 0-7)
srcmac: source MAC address
dstmac: destination MAC address
srcdstmac: source/destination MAC address (default)
srcip: source IP address
dstip: destination IP address
srcdstip: source/destination IP address
To delete a configured distribution mode, use the following command.
no lacp aggregator distmode
AGGREGETIONS
Deletes a configured distribution mode.
8.2.2.3 Operation Mode
After configuring the member port, configure the LACP operation mode of the member
port. This defines the operation way for starting LACP operation. You can select the
operation mode between the active and passive mode.
The active mode allows the system to start LACP operation regardless of other
connected devices. On the other hand, the passive mode allows the system to start LACP
operation only when receiving LACP messages from other connected devices.
In case of an LACP connection between 2 switches, if the member ports of both switches
are configured as the passive mode, the link between the switches cannot be established.
