Link Aggregation Control Protocol Configuration
© Copyright Lenovo 2017
Use the following commands to configure Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) for the G8264.
Table 247.
Link Aggregation Control Protocol Options
Command Syntax and Usage
lacp systempriority <1‐65535>
Defines the priority value for the G8264. Lower numbers provide higher
priority.
The default value is 32768.
Command mode: Global configuration
default lacp systempriority
Resets the priority value for the switch to its default value of 32768.
Command mode: Global configuration
lacp timeout {short|long}
Defines the timeout period before invalidating LACP data from a remote
partner. Choose short (3 seconds) or long (90 seconds).
The default value is long.
Note: To reduce LACPDU processing, use a timeout value of long. If your
G8264's CPU utilization rate remains at 100% for periods of 90 seconds or
more, consider using static Link Aggregation Groups (LAGs) instead of LACP.
Command mode: Global configuration
default lacp timeout
Resets the timeout period before invalidating LACP data from a remote
partner to its default value of long.
Command mode: Global configuration
default lacp
Resets the LACP system configuration to its default values.
Command mode: Global configuration
portchannel <65‐128> lacp key <1‐65535>
Enables a static LACP LAG. In this mode, ports sharing the same LACP admin
key can form a single LAG, with the specified LAG ID. The active LAG is
picked based on the ports which occupy first the LAG ID. Member ports that
cannot join this LAG are prohibited from forming secondary LACP groups.
Instead, they are set in a suspended state where they discard all non‐LACP
traffic.
Command mode: Global configuration
no portchannel <65‐128>
Deletes a static LACP LAG.
Command mode: Global configuration
