8.13 LACP configuration
LACP is a link aggregation protocol that allows multiple physical links to be combined into a single logical link.
This process allows to increase the communication link bandwidth and robustness.
8.13.1 Configuration algorithm
Step Description Command Keys
1 Set the system priority for LACP. esr(config)# lacp system-priority
<PRIORITY>
<PRIORITY> – priority, set in the
range of [1..65535].
Default value: 1.
2 Set the load balancing mechanism for
channel aggregation groups.
esr(config)# port-channel load-
balance { src-dst-mac-ip |
src-dst-mac | src-dst-ip | src-dst-
mac-ip-port }
src-dst-mac-ip –
balancing mechanism is
based on source and
destination MAC
addresses and IP
addresses;
src-dst-mac – balancing
mechanism is based on
the MAC address of a
sender and receiver;
src-dst-ip – balancing
mechanism is based on
the IP address of a
sender and receiver;
src - dst - mac - ip - port
– balancing mechanism
is based on source and
destination MAC
address, IP address and
port.
3 Set LACP administration timeout. esr(config)# lacp timeout {short |
long }
long – long timeout;
short – short timeout.
Default value: long.
4 Create and switch to the aggregated
interface configuration mode.
esr(config)# interface port-channel
<ID>
<ID> – sequence number of a
channel aggregation group,
takes values of [1..12].
5 Configure the required parameters of
aggregated channel.
6 Switch to the physical interface
configuration mode.
esr(config)# interface <IF-
TYPE><IF-NUM>
<IF-TYPE> interface type
(gigabitethernet or
tengigabitethernet).
<IF-NUM> – F/S/P – F frame
(1), S – slot (0), P – port.
