Deploying a LAG
Use the named-port-monitored option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify a named
port within the LAG that you want monitor.
The ethernet <slot/port> parameter specifies the port to which the traffic analyzer is attached.
The input | output | both parameters specify the traffic direction to be monitored.
NOTE
Mirror (analyzer) ports cannot be assigned to the 16x10G card. You can monitor traffic on 16x10
ports.

Assigning a name to a port within a LAG

You can assign a name to an individual port within a LAG using the port-name command within the
LAG configuration as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# port-name orange ethernet 3/1
Syntax: [no] port-name <text> ethernet [slot/port]
The <text> variable specifies the port name. The name can be up to 50 characters long.
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to apply the specified name to an
Ethernet port within the LAG.
Refer to "Allowable characters for LAG names" on page 14 for guidelines on LAG naming
conventions.

Enabling sFlow forwarding on a port within a LAG

You can enable sFlow forwarding on an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-forwarding
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# sflow-forwarding ethernet 3/1
Syntax: [no] sflow-forwarding ethernet [slot/port] | port-name [text]
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify a Ethernet port within
the LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.
Use the port-name option with the appropriate [text] variable to specify a named port within the
LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.

Setting the sFlow sampling rate for a port within a LAG

You can set the sFlow sampling rate for an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-subsampling
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# sflow-subsampling ethernet 3/1 512
Syntax: [no] sflow-subsampling ethernet [slot/port] | port-name [text] <num>
