LACP configuration and management

You need to enter either the copy running-config startup-config command or the write memory
command to save your configuration changes to Flash memory so that they are not lost if there is a
system reload or power outage.

Chapter 3, "Initial FCoE and CEE

Enabling LACP on a CEE interface

To add additional interfaces to an existing LAG, repeat this procedure using the same LAG group
number for the new interfaces.
To enable LACP on a CEE interface, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC mode.
1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
2. Enter the interface command to specify the CEE interface type and slot/port number.

All ports on the Dell FCoE hardware can operate only in full-duplex mode.
QoS—In the Fabric OS version 6.3.1_cee release, QoS commands for a LAG need to be
specified on each LAG member link, instead of on the logical LAG interface (port-group).
Additionally, the QoS commands specified on each LAG member link need to be the same on
each link.
Dell-proprietary LAGs only—All LAG member links need to be part of the same port-group.
Switchport interfaces—Interfaces configured as "switchport" interfaces cannot be aggregated
into a LAG. However, a LAG can be configured as a switchport.
