Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
create link_aggregation
Purpose
Used to create a link aggregation group on the switch.
Syntax
create link_aggregation group_id <value 1-6> {type[lacp |
static]}
Description This
command
will create a link aggregation group with a unique
identifier.
Parameters
<value>
−
Specifies the group id. The switch allows up to 6 link
aggregation groups to be configured. The group number identifies
each of the groups.
type – Specify the type of link aggregation used for the group. If the
type is not specified the default type is static.
lacp – This designates the port group as LACP compliant. LACP
allows dynamic adjustment to the aggregated port group. LACP
compliant ports may be further configured (see config lacp_ports).
LACP compliant must be connected to LACP compliant devices.
static – This designates the aggregated port group as static. Static
port groups can not be changed as easily as LACP compliant port
groups since both linked devices must be manually configured if the
configuration of the trunked group is changed. If static link
aggregation is used, be sure that both ends of the connection are
properly configured and that all ports have the same speed/duplex
settings.
