Table 141: show lacp interfaces Output Fields (continued)
Field Description Field Name
LACP protocol information for each aggregated interface:
• Link state (active or standby) indicated in parentheses next to the interface when link protection
is configured.
• Receive State —One of the following values:
• Current —The state machine receives an LACP PDU and enters the Current state.
•
Defaulted
—If no LACP PDU is received before the timer for the
Current
state expires a second
time, the state machine enters the
Defaulted
state.
• Expired —If no LACP PDU is received before the timer for the Current state expires once, the state
machine enters the
Expired
state.
•
Initialize
—When the physical connectivity of a link changes or a Begin event occurs, the state
machine enters the Initialize state.
•
LACP Disabled
—If the port is operating in half duplex, the operation of LACP is disabled on the
port, forcing the state to
LACP Disabled
. This state is similar to the
Defaulted
state, except that
the port is forced to operate as an individual port.
•
Port Disabled
—If the port becomes inoperable and a Begin event has not occurred, the state
machine enters the
Port Disabled
state.
• Transmit State —Transmit state of state machine. One of the following values:
•
Fast Periodic —Periodic transmissions are enabled at a fast transmission rate.
•
No Periodic
—Periodic transmissions are disabled.
•
Periodic Timer —Transitory state entered when the periodic timer expires.
•
Slow Periodic
—Periodic transmissions are enabled at a slow transmission rate.
• Mux State —State of the multiplexer state machine for the aggregation port. The state is one of the
following values:
•
Attached
—Multiplexer state machine initiates the process of attaching the port to the selected
aggregator.
•
Collecting
—
Yes
indicates that the receive function of this link is enabled with respect to its
participation in an aggregation. Received frames are passed to the aggregator for collection.
No
indicates the receive function of this link is not enabled.
• Collecting Distributing —Collecting and distributing states are merged together to form a combined
state (coupled control). Because independent control is not possible, the coupled control state
machine does not wait for the partner to signal that collection has started before enabling both
collection and distribution.
•
Detached
—Process of detaching the port from the aggregator is in progress.
• Distributing — Yes indicates that the transmit function of this link is enabled with respect to its
participation in an aggregation. Frames may be passed down from the aggregator’s distribution
function for transmission.
No indicates the transmit function of this link is not enabled.
•
Waiting
—Multiplexer state machine is in a holding process, awaiting an outcome.
LACP Protocol
LACP statistics are returned when the extensive option is used and provides the following information:
• LACP Rx —LACP received counter that increments for each normal hello.
•
LACP Tx
—Number of LACP transmit packet errors logged.
•
Unknown Rx
—Number of unrecognized packet errors logged.
• Illegal Rx —Number of invalid packets received.
