12.1.12.1 Configuring a Port Aggregation
Use
static-channel-group
the steps below to configure port aggregation:
1. Create a static channel group for port aggregation and associate an interface with it.
RFSwitch(config)#interface ge 1
RFSwitch(config-if)#static-channel-group 1
2. Execute
sa 1 has been created and associated with
3. Select the other interface required for port aggregation and associate the static
channel group to it.
RFSwitch(config)#interface ge 2
RFSwitch(config-if)#static-channel-group 1
4. Execute
sa 1 has been created and associated with
Both ge 1 and ge 2 are now aggregated and ready for use.
5. Use the
selected for a given packet. The port-channel selection is based on either source-
destination IP or source destination MAC
RFS7000(config-if)#port-channel load-balance src-dst-ip
RFS7000(config-if)#
The default port-channel criteria is based on source-destination IP. The port channel

this mode is prefered over

NOTE: When a port (GE) is aggregated into a Static Aggreagation (SA),
it temporarily takes on the port configuration of the SA.
For example, If GE 1 (previously configured as trunk vlan 1-10) and GE 2
(previously configured as trunk vlan 11-20) are now aggregated as SA 1
and SA 1 is configured as trunk vlan 100-200, then SA 1's configuration
applies to both GE 1 and GE 2. This new configuration like VLAN, speed,
duplex, MST is now applicale on the ports as long as they are part of
the SA. The ports revert bacl to the original configuration once they are
removed from the SA.
