Assigning an IP Address to a Port Channel
You can assign an IP address to a port channel and use port channels in Layer 3 routing protocols.
To assign an IP address, use the following command.
• Configure an IP address and mask on the interface.
INTERFACE mode
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
–
ip-address mask
: enter an address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D). The mask must be in
slash format (/24).
–
secondary
: the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address. You can configure up to eight
secondary IP addresses.
Deleting or Disabling a Port Channel
To delete or disable a port channel, use the following commands.
• Delete a port channel.
CONFIGURATION mode
no interface portchannel channel-number
• Disable a port channel.
shutdown
When you disable a port channel, all interfaces within the port channel are operationally down also.
Load Balancing Through Port Channels
Dell Networking OS uses hash algorithms for distributing traffic evenly over channel members in a port
channel (LAG).
The hash algorithm distributes traffic among Equal Cost Multi-path (ECMP) paths and LAG members. The
distribution is based on a flow, except for packet-based hashing. A flow is identified by the hash and is
assigned to one link. In packet-based hashing, a single flow can be distributed on the LAG and uses one
link.
