HP_APA_MAX_LINKAGGS
Sets the maximum number of link aggregates for the server.
The valid range is from 5 to 50. The default value is 50.
This value takes effect only after a reboot.
HP_APA_STATION_ADDRESS
Specifies the MAC address to assign to the specified link
aggregate. If a link aggregate declaration contains both the
HP_APA_STATION_ADDRESS and HP_APA_FIXED_MAC
parameters, the HP_APA_STATION_ADDRESS parameter
overrides the value of the HP_APA_FIXED_MAC parameter;
the link aggregate is assigned the specified MAC address.
HP_APA_USE_SYSLOG
Enables (1) or disables (0) the logging of status messages
to the syslog.log file (for example, when a link
aggregate or port fails or comes up). The default value is
0. See Section for sample syslog.log messages and their
meaning.
Examples
To set the load-balancing mode to port based (LB_PORT) on lan900:
HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[0]="lan900"
HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[0]="LB_PORT"
HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY[0]="off"
To create a manually formed link aggregate having ports with PPAs 2, 3, and 4:
HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[1]="lan900"
HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[1]="LB_PORT"
HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY[1]="off"
HP_APA_MANUAL_LA[1]="2,3,4"
NOTE: Ensure that the server and switch are set to the same mode—MANUAL.
To configure the MANUAL link aggregates lan905 and lan906, using the system-assigned
MAC address and user-assigned MAC address, respectively:
HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[5]=lan905
HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[5]=LB_MAC
HP_APA_FIXED_MAC[5]=on
HP_APA_MANUAL_LA[5]=1,2,3
HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[6]=lan906
HP_APA_STATION_ADDRESS[6]=0x021122334455
HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[6]=LB_MAC
HP_APA_MANUAL_LA[6]=4,5,6
hp_apaportconf file
The /etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaportconf file contains the following parameters that you
can specify for individual ports. All configuration parameters for physical ports begin with the
prefix HP_APAPORT_.
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE
Set the configuration mode for a physical port. The
supported values are as follows:
FEC_AUTO
LACP_AUTO
LAN_MONITOR
MANUAL
For a description of these parameters, see the mode
descriptions in “Preparing for configuration” (page 29).
HP_APAPORT_GROUP_CAPABILITY
For FEC_AUTO only. An integer value used to determine
which network physical ports can be aggregated into a
common PAgP link aggregate. Set the group capability to
be the same for all network physical ports. The group
