Adding a LAG to a VLAN
To add a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) (also called a Port Channel) to a VLAN, you first create the
LAG, as detailed in the LAG chapter (Configuring a LAG on page 170), and then add the LAG to the
VLAN, using the
tagged or untagged command, just as you do when you add a port to a VLAN (see
Creating a VLAN and Adding Ports on page 211). In the case of a LAG in SFTOS 2.5, use the integer ID
of the LAG.
Note: Recovery of VLAN information from the startup configuration would then require
reloading the switch.
Note: Just as you cannot add a tagged port to the Default VLAN, VLAN 1, you cannot add a
LAG to the Default VLAN.
