The priorities of aggregation groups for allocating load-sharing aggregation resources
are as follows:
z
An aggregation group containing special ports (such as 10GE port) which require
hardware aggregation resources has higher priority than any aggregation group
containing no special port.
z
A manual or static aggregation group has higher priority than a dynamic
aggregation group (unless the latter contains special ports while the former does
not).
z
For two aggregation groups of the same kind, the one that might gain higher speed
if resources were allocated to it has higher priority than the other one. If the two
groups can gain the same speed, the one with smaller master port number has
higher priority than the other one.
When an aggregation group of higher priority appears, the aggregation groups of lower
priorities release their hardware resources. For single-port aggregation groups, they
can transceive packets normally without occupying aggregation resources
Caution:
A load-sharing aggregation group contains at least two selected ports, but a
non-load-sharing aggregation group can only have one selected port at most, while
others are unselected ports.
