Active mode places a port into a negotiating state in which the port initiates
negotiations with other ports by sending LACP packets. A channel is
formed with another port group in either the active or passive mode.
Enables the PAgP only if a PAgP device is detected.
Auto mode places a port into a passive negotiating state in which the port
responds to PAgP packets it receives but does not start PAgP packet
negotiation. A channel is formed only with another port group in desirable
mode. When auto is enabled, silent operation is the default.
Unconditionally enables PAgP.
Desirable mode places a port into an active negotiating state in which the
port starts negotiations with other ports by sending PAgP packets. A
channel is formed with another port group in either the desirable or auto
mode. When desirable is enabled, silent operation is the default.
(Optional) Use in PAgP mode with the auto or desirable keyword when
traffic is expected from the other device.
Enables on mode.
In on mode, a usable EtherChannel exists only when both connected port
groups are in the on mode.
Enables LACP only if a LACP device is detected.
Passive mode places a port into a negotiating state in which the port
responds to LACP packets it receives but does not initiate LACP packet
negotiation. A channel is formed only with another port group in active
mode.
