PR 80776
On OS6600 series switches, after the port is in violated mode, changing the violation option to shutdown
does not take effect operationally.
Workaround: Please do not change the violation option once the port is already in violated state. Instead
change the port's LPS state to disabled and then apply the new violation option and again enable the LPS
on the port.
Link Aggregation (including OmniChannel)
Feature Exceptions
• OS7000: Please refer to the Link Aggregation chapters of the OmniSwitch 7700/7800/8800 Network
Configuration Guide, which include instructions for optimizing first-generation Network Interface
modules for link aggregation.
• OS6600—Static link aggregation: Single aggregate group can have 16 ports in a stack as long as no
more than 8 ports are added on a single switch. The ports must be assigned sequentially and the first
port configured must begin with port number 1, 9, 17, or 25 on a 6624 or 1, 9, 17, 25, 33, 41, 49 or 51
on a 6648. The ports on different switches (NIs) can be in the same aggregate group.The ports should
be with the same speed. The flow of traffic will be such that it goes out from the closest linkagg port.

Problem Reports
PR 61641
The OS7000 switch with static link aggregation configured and connected to several simple ports could
lock up if the flooding traffic is immediately opened before configuring the necessary opposite aggregate
on the remote side.
Workaround: Directly create the objects in an active state. Thereby, bypassing this problem by previ-
ously configuring together both sides of the static aggregates, with aggregation set "disable". Thus, the
"admin state" must be set to "disable" just after the creation. When the whole configuration is ready, set
the admin state to "enable" such it is by default. There is also the possibility of setting down/up ports. Thus
interfaces could be also set admin "down/up" before everything is ready.
PR 65519
Modifying the LACP Actor Admin Key for consecutive ports is allowed by CLI and SNMP on an
OS6624/6648.
Workaround: Modification can be done by taking one port at a time.
