You may also add an existing LAG to the edge ports list. To add either a static LAG
(portchannel) or a static LACP LAG, use the following command:
RS G8264(configopenflowinstance)# edgeport portchannel <LAG ID>
where the LAG ID is derived from the original LAG configuration:
Static LAG (portchannel)
RS G8264(config)# portchannel <LAG ID> port <port list>
Static LACP LAG
RS G8264(config)# portchannel <LAG ID> lacp key <LACP admin key>
For more information about LAGs, see Chapter
In OpenFlow 1.3, port LAGs can be added to OpenFlow instances. A LAG
aggregates its member ports to form a logical port with increased bandwidth. You
can add an existing static LAG (portchannel) or static LACP LAG to an OpenFlow
instance using the following commands:
RS G8264(config)# openflow instance <instance ID>
RS G8264(configopenflowinstance)# member portchannel <LAG ID>
where the LAG ID (the logical port ID) is derived from the original LAG
configuration, based on the LAG type:
Static LAG (portchannel)
RS G8264(config)# portchannel <LAG ID> port <port list>
Static LACP LAG
RS G8264(config)# portchannel <LAG ID> lacp key <LACP admin key>
Note:
For more information about configuring LAGs, see Chapter 10, "Ports and
Link Aggregation."
Once added to the instance, the LAG ports inherit the OpenFlow data properties
such as MAC learning turned off, flood blocking turned on, and STP disabled.
The LAG link remains active as long as at least one member port is up. The LAG
link speed is an aggregation of the speed of the individual member ports. If any
port in the LAG goes down, the overall LAG link speed is decreased accordingly.
To add a static LAG or static LACP LAG to the edge ports list, use the following
command:
RS G8264(configopenflowinstance)# edgeport portchannel <LAG ID>
