The port-channel 32 mode active command shown here may be successfully issued as long as there is no existing static
channel-member configuration in LAG 32.
Setting the LACP Long Timeout
PDUs are exchanged between port channel (LAG) interfaces to maintain LACP sessions.
PDUs are transmitted at either a slow or fast transmission rate, depending upon the LACP timeout value. The timeout
value is the amount of time that a LAG interface waits for a PDU from the remote system before bringing the LACP
session down. The default timeout value is 1 second. You can configure the default timeout value to be 30 seconds.
Invoking the longer timeout might prevent the LAG from flapping if the remote system is up but temporarily unable to
transmit PDUs due to a system interruption.
NOTE: The 30-second timeout is available for dynamic LAG interfaces only. You can enter the lacp long-
timeout command for static LAGs, but it has no effect.
To configure LACP long timeout, use the following command.
• Set the LACP timeout value to 30 seconds.
