Configuring LACP
Defaults
None.
Mode
Switch command, Read‐Write.
Example
This example shows how to clear the actor admin key for LAG port 4:
Matrix(rw)->clear lacp aadminkey lag.0.484
set lacp static
Use this command to assign one or more underlying physical ports to a Link Aggregation Group
(LAG). Matrix DFE‐Gold Series devices allow for up to four ports per aggregator.
Syntax
set lacp static lagportstring [key] port‐string
Parameters
lagportstring
key
port‐string
Defaults
If not specified, a key will be assigned according to the specified aggregator. For example a key of 4
would be assigned to lag.0.4.
Mode
Switch command, Read‐Write.
Usage
At least two ports need to be assigned to a LAG port for a Link Aggregation Group to form and
attach to the specified LAG port.
The same usage considerations for dynamic LAGs discussed in "Matrix Series Usage
Considerations" on page 4‐56 apply to statically created LAGs.
Static LAG configuration should be performed by personnel who are knowledgeable about Link
Aggregation. Misconfiguration can result in LAGs not being formed, or in ports attaching to the
wrong LAG port, affecting proper network operation.
4-62 Port Configuration
Specifies the LAG aggregator port to which new ports will be assigned.
(Optional) Specifies the new member port and LAG port aggregator
admin key value. Only ports with matching keys are allowed to
aggregate. Valid values are 0 ‐ 65535.
Note: This key value must be unique. If ports other than the desired underlying
physical ports share the same admin key value, aggregation will fail or
undesired aggregations will form.
Specifies the member port(s) to add to the LAG. For a detailed
description of possible port‐string values, refer to "Port String Syntax
Used in the CLI" on page 4‐2.
