Note:
To add or remove an Ethernet interface to a LAG group, the interface
must be in an administrative state of
“
down
”
. This restriction does not
apply to radio interfaces. For instructions on setting the administrative
state of an interface, see
IP-20 supports LACP, which expands the capabilities of static LAG and provides
interoperability with third-party equipment that uses LACP. LACP improves the
communication between LAG members. This improves error detection capabilities
in situations such as improper LAG configuration or improper cabling. It also
enables the LAG to detect uni-directional failure and remove the link from the
LAG, preventing packet loss.
LACP is enabled as part of the LAG configuration process. It should only be used if
the LAG is in a link with another LACP-enabled LAG.
Note:
LACP is not supported with unit protection. For unit protection, a
special, limited implementation is configured on the logical interface
level. See
Configuring Line Protection Mode (CLI)
LACP can only be used with Ethernet interfaces.
LACP cannot be used with Enhanced LAG Distribution or with the LAG
Group Shutdown in Case of Degradation Event feature.
14.4.2
Configuring a LAG Group (CLI)
To create a LAG:
1 Go to interface view for the first interface you want to assign to the LAG and
enter the following command:
eth type eth [x/x]> static-lag add lagid <lagid>
2 Repeat this process for each interface you want to assign to the LAG.
14.4.3
Configuring LACP (CLI)
To enable LACP on a LAG group, go to interface view for the LAG and enter the
following command:
eth group [lagx]> lacp admin set enable
To disable LACP on a LAG group, go to interface view for the LAG and enter the
following command:
eth group [lagx]> lacp admin set disable
To display whether or not LACP is enabled on a LAG group, go to interface view for
the LAG and enter the following command:
eth group [lagx]>lacp admin show
The following commands enable LACP for LAG group 1:
root> ethernet interfaces group lag1
eth group [lag1]>lacp admin set enable
eth group [lag1]>
