Interface Configuration (Port Channel)
Command Usage
◆ Ports are only allowed to join the same LAG if (1) the LACP system priority
matches, (2) the LACP port admin key matches, and (3) the LACP port channel
key matches (if configured).
◆ If the port channel admin key (lacp admin key - Port Channel) is not set when a
channel group is formed (i.e., it has the null value of 0), this key is set to the
same value as the port admin key (lacp admin key - Ethernet Interface) used by
the interfaces that joined the group. Note that when the LAG is no longer used,
the port channel admin key is reset to 0.
Example
Console(config)#interface port-channel 1
Console(config-if)#lacp admin-key 3
Console(config-if)#

Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Port Channel)
Command Usage
◆ The timeout configured by this command is set in the LACP timeout bit of the
Actor State field in transmitted LACPDUs. When the partner switch receives an
LACPDU set with a short timeout from the actor switch, the partner adjusts the
transmit LACPDU interval to 1 second. When it receives an LACPDU set with a
long timeout from the actor, it adjusts the transmit LACPDU interval to 30
seconds.
