HP Auto Port Aggregation Administrator's Guide HP-UX 11i v3 (766140-001, March 2014)
On the server side, complete the following steps:
1. Create link aggregate lan900 using ports lan and lan2. Enter:
# nwmgr -s -A key=900,mode=LACP_AUTO -I 1 -S apa
lan1 new values:
Mode = LACP_AUTO
Key = 900
# nwmgr -s -A key=900,mode=LACP_AUTO -I 2 -S apa
lan2 new values:
Mode = LACP_AUTO
Key = 900
2. Create VLANs 333 and 334 over lan902. Enter:
# nwmgr -a -S vlan -A vlanid=333, ppa=902
VLAN interface lan5000 successfully configured.
lan5000 current values:
VPPA = 5000
Related PPA = 902
VLAN ID = 333
VLAN Name = UNNAMED
Priority = 0
Priority Override Level = CONF_PRI
ToS = 0
ToS Override Level = IP_HEADER
# nwmgr -a -S vlan -A vlanid=334, ppa=902
VLAN interface lan5001 successfully configured.
lan5001 current values:
VPPA = 5001
Related PPA = 902
VLAN ID = 334
VLAN Name = UNNAMED
Priority = 0
Priority Override Level = CONF_PRI
ToS = 0
ToS Override Level = IP_HEADER
NOTE: LAN Monitor uses polling packets to monitor the connectivity among the links in the
failover group. These packets are always sent untagged. The switch must be configured to
allow for the forwarding of these untagged polling packets.
Typically in the factory configuration, all ports in the switch are configured with the same
default untagged VLAN of VLAN ID 1. This configuration allows a VLAN aware switch to
behave exactly like a traditional LAN switch.
