Configuring LACP Port-Channel MinLinks

With Cisco NX-OS Release 5.1, you can configure the LACP minlinks feature. Although minlinks and
maxbundles work only in LACP, you can enter the CLI commands for these features for non-LACP port
channels, but these commands are nonoperational.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Ensure that you are in the correct port-channel interface.

Purpose
|
Specifies the port mode for the link in a port channel.
After LACP is enabled, you configure each link or the
entire channel as active or passive.
When you run port channels with no associated
aggregation protocol, the port-channel mode is always
on.
The default port-channel mode is on.
(Optional) Displays summary information about the
port channels.
(Optional) Copies the running configuration to the
startup configuration.
