Configuring A Dynamic Aggregation Group - HP 5120 EI Series Lan Switching Configuration Manual

Configuring a dynamic aggregation group

To guarantee a successful dynamic aggregation, be sure that the peer ports of the ports aggregated at
one end are also aggregated. The two ends can automatically negotiate the aggregation state of each
member port.
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Set the system
LACP priority.
3. Create a Layer 2
aggregate
interface and enter
Layer 2 aggregate
interface view.
4. Configure the
aggregation group
to operate in
dynamic
aggregation
mode.
5. Exit to system view.
6. Assign an Ethernet
interface to the
aggregation
group.
7. Assign the port an
aggregation
priority.
8. Set the LACP
timeout interval on
the port to the short
timeout interval (1
second).

b. Assign the Ethernet interface to the
aggregation group:

Remarks
N/A
Optional.
By default, the system LACP priority is
32768.
Changing the system LACP priority
might affect the aggregation state of
the ports in a dynamic aggregation
group.
When you create a Layer 2
aggregate interface, the system
automatically creates a Layer 2 static
aggregation group numbered the
same.
By default, an aggregation group
operates in static aggregation mode.
N/A
Repeat these two sub-steps to assign
more Layer 2 Ethernet interfaces to
the aggregation group.
Optional.
By default, the aggregation priority
of a port is 32768.
Changing the aggregation priority of
a port might affect the aggregation
state of the ports in the dynamic
aggregation group.
Optional.
By default, the LACP timeout interval
on a port is the long timeout interval
(30 seconds).
