Minimum links
Congure minimum links in a port-channel LAG that must be in oper up status to consider the port-channel to be in oper up status.
• Enter the number of links in a LAG that must be in oper up status in PORT-CHANNEL mode, from 1 to 32, default 1.
minimum-links number
Congure minimum operationally up links
OS10(config)# interface port-channel 1
OS10(conf-if-po-1)# minimum-links 5
Assign Port Channel IP Address
You can assign an IP address to a port channel and use port channels in L3 routing protocols.
• Congure an IP address and mask on the interface in INTERFACE PORT-CHANNEL mode.
ip address ip-address/mask [secondary-ip-address]
– ip-address/mask — Specify an IP address in dotted-decimal A.B.C.D format and the mask.
– secondary-ip-address — Specify a secondary IP address in dotted-decimal A.B.C.D format, which acts as the interface’s
backup IP address.
Assign Port Channel IP Address
OS10# configure terminal
OS10(config)# interface port-channel 1
OS10(conf-if-po-1)# ip address 1.1.1.1/24
OS10(conf-if-po-1)#
Remove or disable port-channel
You can delete or disable a port-channel.
1 Delete a port-channel in CONFIGURATION mode.
no interface port-channel channel-number
2 Disable a port-channel to place all interfaces within the port-channel operationally down in CONFIGURATION mode.
shutdown
Delete port-channel
OS10(config)# interface port-channel 10
OS10(conf-if-po-10)# no interface port-channel 10
Load balance trac
Use hashing to load balance trac across member interfaces of a port-channel. Load balancing uses source and destination packet
information to distribute trac over multiple interfaces when transferring data to a destination.
