Figure 5 S-MLAG application scenario
Restrictions and guidelines: Mixed use of manual
and automatic link aggregation configuration
To avoid unexpected aggregation issues, do not use manual assignment, automatic assignment,
and automatic link aggregation in any combination. If you use any two of these features in
combination, an automatically assigned member port might move between aggregation groups or
undesirably change from Selected to Unselected in some situations.
Ethernet link aggregation tasks at a glance
To configure Ethernet link aggregation, perform the following tasks:
1.
Configuring link aggregations
Configuring a manual link aggregation
Configuring automatic link aggregation
Configuring S-MLAG
2.
(Optional.)
Configuring the description of an aggregate interface
Setting the MAC address for an aggregate interface
Configuring jumbo frame support
Setting the MTU for a Layer 3 aggregate interface
Setting the expected bandwidth for an aggregate interface
Configuring an edge aggregate interface
An edge aggregate interface uses all member ports to forward traffic when the aggregation
peer is not enabled with dynamic link aggregation.
Configuring physical state change suppression on an aggregate interface
Shutting down an aggregate interface
Restoring the default settings for an aggregate interface
3.
(Optional.) Adjusting aggregation states of link aggregation member ports
Setting the minimum and maximum numbers of Selected ports for an aggregation group
Disabling the default action of selecting a Selected port for dynamic aggregation groups that
have not received LACPDUs
