Congure minimum operationally up links

OS10(config)# interface po 1

OS10(conf-if-po-1)# minimum-links 5

Assign IP address

Assign an IP address to a port-channel and use port-channels in L3 routing protocols.

• Congure an IP address and mask for the interface in INTERFACE mode. Use the secondary parameter to congure up to eight

secondary IP addresses, if needed.

ip address A.B.C.D/x [secondary]

Assign port-channel IP address

OS10(config)# interface port-channel 10

OS10(conf-if-po10)# ip address 1.1.1.1/24

Remove or disable port-channel

You can delete or disable a port-channel.

1 Delete a port-channel in CONFIGURATION mode.

no interface port-channel channel-number

2 Disable a port-channel to place all interfaces within the port-channel operationally down in CONFIGURATION mode.

shutdown

Delete port-channel

OS10(config)# interface port-channel 10

OS10(conf-if-po-10)# no interface port-channel 10

Load balance trac

You can use hashing to load balance trac across the member interfaces of a port-channel. Load balancing uses source and destination

packet information to distribute trac over multiple interfaces when transferring data to a destination.

For packets without an L3 header, OS10 automatically uses the load-balancing mac—selection destination-mac command

for hash algorithms by default.

When you congure an IP and MAC hashing scheme at the same time, the MAC hashing scheme takes precedence over the IP hashing

scheme.

• Select one or more methods of load balancing and replace the default IP 4-tuple method of balancing trac over a port-channel in

CONFIGURATION mode.

OS10(config)# load-balancing

ingress-port Ingress port configurations

tcp-udp-selection TCP-UDP port for load-balancing configurations

ip-selection IPV4 load-balancing configurations

ipv6-selection IPV6 load-balancing configurations

mac-selection MAC load-balancing configurations

– ingress-port [enable] — Enables the ingress port conguration.

– tcp-upd-selection [l4–destination-port | l4–source-port] — Uses the Layer 4 destination IP address, or

Layer 4 source IP address in the hash calculation.

source-port] — Uses the destination IP address, source IP address, protocol, VLAN ID, Layer 4 destination IP address, or Layer

4 source IP address in the hash calculation.
