Usage
Information
This feature groups two LAGs to work in tandem as a supergroup. For example, if one LAG goes down,
the other LAG is taken down automatically, providing an alternate path to reroute traffic, avoiding
oversubscription on the other LAG. You can use both static and dynamic (LACP) LAGs to configure
failover groups. For more information, refer to the Port Channel chapter in the Dell Networking OS
Configuration Guide.
