When a dynamic port-channel is torn down, the configured timeout value
will be retained. When the dynamic port-channel is constructed again, that
timeout value will be used.
Configure Aggregation Port - General
Port – Port identifier. (Range: 1-28)
LACP Status – Enables or disables LACP on a port.
Configure Aggregation Port - Actor/Partner
Port – Port number. (Range: 1-28)
Admin Key – The LACP administration key must be set to the same value for
ports that belong to the same LAG. (Range: 0-65535; Default – Actor: 1,
Partner: 0)
Once the remote side of a link has been established, LACP operational settings
are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for the partner only
applies to its administrative state, not its operational state.
Note:
Configuring the partner admin-key does not affect remote or local switch
operation. The local switch just records the partner admin-key for user reference.
By default, the actors operational key is determined by port's link speed
(1000f - 4, 100f - 3, 10f - 2), and copied to the admin key.
System Priority – LACP system priority is used to determine link aggregation
group (LAG) membership, and to identify this device to other switches during
LAG negotiations. (Range: 0-65535; Default: 32768)
System priority is combined with the switchs MAC address to form the LAG
identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP
negotiations with other systems.
Port Priority If a link goes down, LACP port priority is used to select a backup
link. (Range: 0-65535; Default: 32768)
Setting a lower value indicates a higher effective priority.
If an active port link goes down, the backup port with the highest priority is
selected to replace the downed link. However, if two or more ports have the
same LACP port priority, the port with the lowest physical port number will
be selected as the backup port.
If an LAG already exists with the maximum number of allowed port
members, and LACP is subsequently enabled on another port using a
higher priority than an existing member, the newly configured port will
replace an existing port member that has a lower priority.
