Vlans On An Ethernet Link Bundle - Cisco NCS 5500 Series Configuration Manual

VLANs on an Ethernet Link Bundle

• Entering yes saves configuration changes to the running configuration file, exits the configuration session, and
returns the router to EXEC mode.
• Entering no exits the configuration session and returns the router to EXEC mode without committing the configuration
changes.
• Entering cancel leaves the router in the current configuration session without exiting or committing the configuration
changes.
• Use the commit command to save the configuration changes to the running configuration file and remain within
the configuration session.
This example shows how to configure all egress traffic on the fixed members of a bundle to flow through the
same physical member link automatically.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router# configuration terminal
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# interface bundle-ether 1.1 l2transport
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-subif)#bundle load-balancing hash auto
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-subif)#

VLANs on an Ethernet Link Bundle

802.1Q VLAN subinterfaces can be configured on 802.3ad Ethernet link bundles. Keep the following
information in mind when adding VLANs on an Ethernet link bundle:
• There is no separate limit defined for Layer 3 sub-interfaces on a bundle. However, an overall system
The memory requirement for bundle VLANs is slightly higher than standard physical interfaces.
Note
To create a VLAN subinterface on a bundle, include the VLAN subinterface instance with the interface
Bundle-Ether command, as follows:
interface Bundle-Ether interface-bundle-id.subinterface
After you create a VLAN on an Ethernet link bundle, all VLAN subinterface configuration is supported on
that link bundle.
VLAN subinterfaces can support multiple Layer 2 frame types and services, such as Ethernet Flow Points -
EFPs) and Layer 3 services.
