channel-group

Overview Use this command to either create a new dynamic channel group while at the
same time adding a port to it, or to add a port to an existing dynamic channel
group. Note that you must also set the LACP mode to be either active or passive.
You can create up to 2 dynamic (LACP) channel groups (or up to 2 static channel
groups).
Use the no variant of this command to turn off link aggregation on the device port.
You will be returned to Global Configuration mode from Interface Configuration
mode.

Mode Interface Configuration
Usage All the device ports in a channel-group must belong to the same VLANs, have the
same tagging status, and can only be operated on as a group. All device ports
within a channel group must have the same port speed and be in full duplex mode.
Once the LACP channel group has been created, it is treated as a device port, and
can be referred to in most other commands that apply to device ports.
To refer to an LACP channel group in other LACP commands, use the channel
group number. To specify an LACP channel group (LACP aggregator) in other
commands, prefix the channel group number with po. For example, 'po2' refers to
the LACP channel group with channel group number 2.
