The link aggregation commands in the Command Line Interface (CLI) are listed (along with the appropriate parameters) in the
following table.
Command
Parameters
create link_aggregation
group_id <value 1-6> {type [lacp | static]}
delete link_aggregation
group_id <value 1-6>
config link_aggregation
group_id <value 1-6>{master_port <port> | ports <portlist> | state [enable|disable]}(1)
config link_aggregation
algorithm
[mac_source | mac_destination | mac_source_dest]
show link_aggregation
{group_id <value 1-6> | algorithm}
config lacp_port
<portlist> mode [active | passive]
show lacp_port
{<portlist>}
Each command is listed, in detail, in the following sections.
create link_aggregation
Purpose
Used to create a link aggregation group on the Switch.
Syntax
create link_aggregation group_id <value 1-6> {type[lacp | static]}
Description
This command will create a link aggregation group with a unique identifier.
Parameters
<value>
−
Specifies the group ID. The Switch allows up to 6 link aggregation groups to be
configured. The group number identifies each of the groups.
type
– Specify the type of link aggregation used for the group. If the type is not specified
the default type is
static
.
1.0
lacp
– This designates the port group as LACP compliant. LACP allows dynamic
adjustment to the aggregated port group. LACP compliant ports may be further
configured (see config lacp_ports). LACP compliant must be connected to LACP
compliant devices.
2.0
static
– This designates the aggregated port group as static. Static port groups can
not be changed as easily as LACP compliant port groups since both linked devices
must be manually configured if the configuration of the trunk group is changed. If
static link aggregation is used, be sure that both ends of the connection are
properly configured and that all ports have the same speed/duplex settings.
Restrictions
Only Administrator-level users can issue this command.
Example usage:
To create a link aggregation group:
DES-1228/ME:4#create link_aggregation group_id 1
Command: create link_aggregation group_id 1
Success.
DES-1228/ME:4#
delete link_aggregation group_id
Purpose
Used to delete a previously configured link aggregation group.
Syntax
delete link_aggregation group_id <value 1-6>
