◆
Once the remote side of a link has been established, LACP operational settings 
are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for the partner only 
applies to its administrative state, not its operational state, and will only take 
effect the next time an aggregate link is established with the partner.
Example 
Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#lacp actor port-priority 128
lacp system-priority
This command configures a port's LACP system priority. Use the 
no
 form to restore 
the default setting.

Command Usage 
◆
Port must be configured with the same system priority to join the same LAG.

System priority is combined with the switch’s MAC address to form the LAG 
identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP 
negotiations with other systems.

are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for the partner only
