Link Aggregation Control Protocol for IAP-220 Series
IAP-220 Series supports the IEEE 802.11ac standard for high-performance WLAN. To support maximum traffic, port
aggregation is required as it increases throughput and enhances reliability. To support port aggregation, Instant
supports Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) based on the IEEE 802.3ad standard. 802.3ad standard for
Ethernet aggregation uses LACP as a method to manage link configuration and balance traffic among aggregated
ports.
LACP provides a standardized means for exchanging information with partner systems to form a dynamic link
aggregation group. The LACP feature is automatically enabled during IAP boots and it dynamically detects the AP if
connected to a partner system with LACP capability, by checking if there is any LACP Protocol Data Unit (PDU)
received on either eth0 or eth1 port.
If the switch in the cluster has the LACP capability, you can combine eth0 and eth1 interfaces into the link
aggregation group to form a single logical interface (port-channel). Port-channels can be used to provide additional
bandwidth or link redundancy between two devices. IAP-220 Series supports link aggregation using either standard
port-channel (configuration based) or Link Aggregation Control Protocol (protocol signaling based). IAP-220 Series
can optionally be deployed with LACP configuration to benefit from the higher (greater than 1 Gbps) aggregate
throughput capabilities of the two radios.
The LACP feature is supported only on IAP-220 Series.
To enable port-channel on a S3500 Mobility Access Switch:
1. Create a switching profile by running the following commands:
interface-profile switching-profile <profile-name>
switchport-mode {trunk}
exit
2. Create a port-channel and associate the switching profile by running the following commands:
interface port-channel <0-63>
port-channel-members [<interface-list> | [add | delete] gigabitethernet
<slot/module/port>]
shutdown
switching-profile <profile-name>
