- Appendix
eBGP peer routing profile—An eBGP peer routing profile is a routing template that contains BGP remote addresses and
the remote AS number. A remote address can be an interface address or a loopback address. During uplink creation, you can
associate this policy to uplink created on one or more switches in a fabric. When this policy is created, a BGP session is
configured on the switch.
Uplink bonding options
Following are the uplink bonding types supported:
● LACP
● Static bonding
LACP
In LACP uplink bonding, SFS configure the LACP LAG for the uplink using the LACP PDUs received from the remote device.
Networks that are attached to the uplink are associated with the LACP LAG that is created.
Static bonding
In static bonding, SFS configures a static LAG for the uplink and the networks that are attached on the uplink are associated
with the LAG that is created.
