ExtremeWare XOS 11.5 Command Reference Guide
306
configure lacp member-port priority
configure lacp member-port <port> priority <port_priority>
Description
Configures the member port of an LACP to ensure the order that ports are added to the aggregator. The
lower value you configure for the port’s priority, the higher priority that port has to be added to the
aggregator.
Syntax Description
Default
The default priority is 0.
Usage Guidelines
The port must be added to the LAG prior to configuring it for LACP. The default value is 0, or highest
priority.
You can configure the port priority to ensure the order in which LAG ports join the aggregator. If you
do not configure this parameter, the lowest numbered ports in the LAG are the first to be added to the
aggregator; if there are additional ports configured for that LAG, they are put in standby mode.
Use this command to override the default behavior and ensure the order in which LAG ports are
selected. Also, if more than one port is
configured
with the same priority, the lowest numbered port joins
the aggregator.
Example
The following command sets the port priority for the LAG port 5:1 to be 55 (which will probably put
that port in standby initially):
configure lacp member-port 5:1 priority 55
History
This command was first available in ExtremeWare XOS 11.4.
Platform Availability
This command is available on all platforms.
port
Specifies the LACP member port that you are specifying the priority for.
port_priority
Specifies the priority you are applying to this member port to be assigned to
the LACP aggregator. The range is from 1 to 65535; the default is 0. The
lower configured value has higher priority to be added to the aggregator.
