Reference Guide

LACP enables ports to be dynamically bundled as members of a port-channel. To congure a port for LACP operation, use the channel-
group mode command. Active and passive modes allow LACP to negotiate between ports to determine if they can form a port -channel
based on their conguration settings.
OS10(config)# interface port-channel 100
OS10(conf-if-po-10)# exit
OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/2
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/2)# channel-group 100 mode active
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 (1 to 32, default 1).
minimum-links number
Congure minimum operationally up links
OS10(config)# interface po 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 mode.
ip address ip-address mask [secondary]
– ip-address mask — Specify an IP address in dotted-decimal format (A.B.C.D) and the mask in slash format (/24).
– secondary — Specify the IP address is the interface’s backup IP address. You can congure up to eight secondary IP addresses.
Assign Port Channel IP Address
OS10(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)# ip address 1.1.1.1/24
OS10(conf-if-eth1/1/1)#
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
