Dell(conf-if-te-4/16)#no shutdown
Dell(conf-if-te-4/16)#port-channel-protocol lacp
Dell(conf-if-te-4/16-lacp)#port-channel 32 mode active
The port-channel 32 mode active command shown here may be successfully issued as long as there is no existing static channel-
member configuration in LAG 32.
Setting the LACP Long Timeout
PDUs are exchanged between port channel (LAG) interfaces to maintain LACP sessions.
PDUs are transmitted at either a slow or fast transmission rate, depending upon the LACP timeout value. The timeout value is the
amount of time that a LAG interface waits for a PDU from the remote system before bringing the LACP session down. The default
timeout value is
1 second . You can configure the default timeout value to be 30 seconds . Invoking the longer timeout might prevent
the LAG from flapping if the remote system is up but temporarily unable to transmit PDUs due to a system interruption.
NOTE: The 30-second timeout is available for dynamic LAG interfaces only. You can enter the
lacp long-timeout
command for static LAGs, but it has no effect.
To configure LACP long timeout, use the following command.
• Set the LACP timeout value to 30 seconds.
CONFIG-INT-PO mode

To view the PDU exchanges and the timeout value, use the debug lacp command. For more information, refer to Monitoring and
Debugging LACP .
Monitoring and Debugging LACP
The system log (syslog) records faulty LACP actions.
To debug LACP, use the following command.
• Debug LACP, including configuration and events.
