LACP configuration procedures

Configuring the LACP system priority
You configure an LACP system priority on each switch running LACP. LACP uses the system priority
with the switch MAC address to form the system ID and also during negotiation with other switches.
The system priority value must be a number in the range of 1 through 65535. The higher the
number, the lower the priority. The default priority is 32768.
To configure the global LACP system priority, perform the following steps from Privileged EXEC
mode:
6. Specify the LAG type (trunk type):
brocade—Brocade trunking
standard—Standards-based trunking
(this is the default)
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#channel-group 1-63
mode {active | on | passive} [type
{brocade | standard}]
7. Display the LACP configuration for the
specified port.
switch(conf-if-te-0/1)#do show
running-config interface
tengigabitethernet Slot/Port
8. Display the following LACP information:
running-config
detail
load-balance
summary
switch#show port-channel [1-63] [detail |
load-balance | summary]
Step Task Command
1. Enter global configuration mode. switch#config t
Enter configuration commands, one per
line. End with CNTL/Z.
switch(config)#
2. Specify the LACP system priority. switch(config)#lacp system-priority
1-65535
3. Display the LACP system ID. switch(config)#do show lacp sys-id
Step Task Command
To add additional interfaces to an existing LAG, perform the above steps on the interface making sure that
you use the same LAG group number for the new interfaces.
To delete an interface from a LAG, enter the no channel-group command on the interface.
