p
Command Remarks
1. Enter system view.
system-view N/A
2. Set the system LACP priority.
lacp system-priority system-priority
Optional.
By default, the system LACP priority
is 32768.
Changing the system LACP priority
might affect the aggregation state
of the ports in the dynamic
aggregation group.
3. Create a Layer 3 aggregate
interface and enter Layer 3
aggregate interface view.
interface route-aggregation
interface-number
When you create a Layer 3
aggregate interface, the system
automatically creates a Layer 3
static aggregation group
numbered the same.
4. Configure the aggregation
group to operate in dynamic
aggregation mode.
link-aggregation mode dynamic
By default, an aggregation group
operates in static aggregation
mode.
5. Exit to system view.
quit N/A
6. Assign a Layer 3 Ethernet
interface to the aggregation
group.
a. interface interface-type
interface-number
b. port link-aggregation
group number
Repeat these two sub-steps to
assign more Layer 3 Ethernet
interfaces to the aggregation
group.
7. Assign the port an
aggregation priority.
link-aggregation port-priority
port-priority
Optional.
By default, the aggregation priority
of a port is 32768.
When the number of ports eligible
for becoming Selected ports
exceeds the maximum number of
Selected ports allowed in a
dynamic aggregation group,
changing the aggregation priority
of a port might affect the
aggregation state of ports in the
dynamic aggregation group.
8. Set the LACP timeout interval
on the port to the short timeout
interval (1 second).
lacp period short
Optional.
By default, the LACP timeout
interval on a port is the long
timeout interval (30 seconds).
Configuring an aggregate interface
Most of the configurations that can be performed on Layer 2 or Layer 3 Ethernet interfaces can also be
performed on Layer 2 or Layer 3 aggregate interfaces.
