Interface Configuration (Ethernet)
Command Usage
• Port must be configured with the same system priority to join the same LAG.
• System priority is combined with the switch’s MAC address to form the LAG
identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP negotiations
with other systems.
• 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, and will only take effect the next
time an aggregate link is established with the partner.
Example
lacp admin-key (Ethernet Interface)
This command configures a port's LACP administration key. Use the no form to restore
the default setting.
Syntax
lacp {actor | partner} admin-key key
[no] lacp {actor | partner} admin-key
• actor - The local side an aggregate link.
• partner - The remote side of an aggregate link.
• key - The port admin key must be set to the same value for ports that belong to the
same link aggregation group (LAG). (Range: 0-65535)
Default Setting
0
Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet)
Command Usage
• Ports are only allowed to join the same LAG if (1) the LACP system priority
matches, (2) the LACP port admin key matches, and (3) the LACP port channel key
matches (if configured).
• If the port channel admin key (lacp admin key - Port Channel) is not set when a
channel group is formed (i.e., it has the null value of 0), this key is set to the same
value as the port admin key (lacp admin key - Ethernet Interface) used by the
interfaces that joined the group.
