ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch ISCLI Reference Guide

Configuration Commands 108
Link Aggregation Control Protocol configuration
The following table describes the LACP Configuration commands.
Table 116 LACP Configuration commands
Command Description
lacp system-priority {<1-65535>} Defines the priority value (1 through 65535) for the switch. Lower
numbers provide higher priority. The default value is 32768.
Command mode: Global configuration
lacp timeout {short|long} Defines the timeout period before invalidating LACP data from a remote
partner. Choose
short (3 seconds) or long (90 seconds). The default
value is
long.
Note: HP recommends that you use a timeout value of
long, to reduce
LACPDU processing. If your switch’s CPU utilization rate remains at 100%
for periods of 90 seconds or more, consider using static trunks instead of
LACP.
Command mode: Global configuration

Command mode: All
LACP Port configuration
The following table describes the LACP Port Configuration commands.
Table 117 LACP Port Configuration commands
Command Description
lacp mode
{off|active|passive}
Set the LACP mode for this port, as follows:
• off
Turn LACP off for this port. You can use this port to manually configure a
static trunk. The default value is off.
• active
Turn LACP on and set this port to active. Active ports initiate LACPDUs.
• passive
Turn LACP on and set this port to passive. Passive ports do not initiate
LACPDUs, but respond to LACPDUs from active ports.
Command mode: Global configuration
lacp priority {<1-65535>} Sets the priority value for the selected port. Lower numbers provide higher
priority. Default is 128.
Command mode: Global configuration
lacp key {<1-65535>} Set the admin key for this port. Only ports with the same admin key and oper
key (operational state generated internally) can form a LACP trunk group.
Command mode: Global configuration
show interface port {<port
number>} lacp
Displays the current LACP configuration for this port.
Command mode: All
