Commands Available Under Lag Once It Is Deployed; Configuring Acl-Based Mirroring - Dell PowerConnect B-RX Configuration Manual

8
Deploying a LAG
When the deploy command is executed:
For a static and dynamic LAGs, the current trunk veto mechanism is invoked to make sure the trunk
can be formed. If the trunk is not vetoed, a trunk is formed with all the ports in the LAG.
For dynamic LAGs, LACP is activated on all LAG ports. When activating LACP, use active mode if
passive is not specified; otherwise, use passive mode.
For a keep-alive LAGs, no trunk is formed, and LACP is started on the LAG port.
Once the deploy command is issued, all LAG ports will behave like a single port.
If the no deploy command is executed, the trunk is removed. For dynamic LAGs, LACP is
de-activated on all of the LAG ports.
If the no deploy command is issued and more than 1 LAG port is not disabled the command is
aborted and the following error message is displayed: "Error 2 or more ports in the LAG are not
disabled, un-deploy this LAG may form a loop - aborted." Using the forced keyword with the no
deploy command in the previous situation, the un-deployment of the LAG is executed.

Configuring ACL-based mirroring

ACL-based mirroring can be configured for an individual port within a LAG using the acl-mirror-port
command, as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# acl-mirror-port ethe-port-monitored 3/1
Syntax: [no] acl-mirror-port ethe-port-monitored [slot/port] | named-port-monitored [name]
Use the ethe-port-monitored option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify a Ethernet
port that you want to provide ACL mirroring for.
Use the named-port-monitored option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify a named
port that you want to provide ACL mirroring for.
NOTE
Mirror (analyzer) ports cannot be assigned to the 16x10G card. You can monitor traffic on 16x10
ports.
