Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
This chapter contains commands for Dell Force10’s implementation of the link aggregation control protocol (LACP) for
creating dynamic link aggregation groups (LAGs)—known as “port-channels” in the Dell Force10 operating software
[FTOS]. The LACP commands in this chapter are supported by FTOS on all E-Series, C-Series, S-Series, Z-Series, or
S4810 Dell Force10 systems.
NOTE: For static LAG commands, refer to Port Channel Commands in the Interfaces chapter), based on the
standards specified in the IEEE 802.3 Carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (CSMA/CD) access
method and physical layer specifications.
NOTE: An FTOS option provides hitless dynamic LACP states (no noticeable impact to dynamic LACP states after an
route processor module [RPM] failover) on the E-Series. For more information, refer to the
Redundancy Protocol in
the High Availability
chapter.
clear lacp counters
Clear Port Channel counters.
C-Series, E-Series, S-Series, Z-Series, S4810
Syntax
clear lacp port-channel-number counters
Parameters
port-channel-
number
Enter a port-channel number: For the C-Series and S-Series, the
range is 1 to 128. For the E-Series, the range is 1 to 255 for TeraScale
and 1 to 512 for ExaScale.
Defaults Without a Port Channel specified, the command clears all Port Channel counters.
