Verifying That LACP Is Configured Correctly and Bundle Members Are Exchanging LACP Protocol Packets
Verify that LACP has been set up correctly and that the bundle members are transmitting LACP protocol packets.
Verifying the LACP Setup
Purpose
Verify that the LACP has been set up correctly.
Action
TO verify that LACP has been enabled as active on one end:
user@switch>show lacp interfaces xe-0/1/0
Aggregated interface: ae0 LACP state: Role Exp Def Dist Col Syn Aggr Timeout Activity xe-0/1/0 Actor No Yes No No No Yes Fast Active xe-0/1/0 Partner No Yes No No No Yes Fast Passive LACP protocol: Receive State Transmit State Mux State xe-0/1/0 Defaulted Fast periodic Detached
Meaning
This example shows that LACP has been configured with one side as active and the other as passive. When LACP is enabled, one side must be set as active in order for the bundled link to be up.
Verifying That LACP Packets Are Being Exchanged
Purpose
Verify that LACP packets are being exchanged between interfaces.
Action
Use the show interfaces aex statistics command to display LACP BPDU exchange information.
show interfaces ae0 statistics
Physical interface: ae0, Enabled, Physical link is Down Interface index: 153, SNMP ifIndex: 30 Link-level type: Ethernet, MTU: 1514, Speed: Unspecified, Loopback: Disabled, Source filtering: Disabled, Flow control: Disabled, Minimum links needed: 1, Minimum bandwidth needed: 0 Device flags : Present Running Interface flags: Hardware-Down SNMP-Traps Internal: 0x0 Current address: 02:19:e2:50:45:e0, Hardware address: 02:19:e2:50:45:e0 Last flapped : Never Statistics last cleared: Never Input packets : 0 Output packets: 0 Input errors: 0, Output errors: 0 Logical interface ae0.0 (Index 71) (SNMP ifIndex 34) Flags: Hardware-Down Device-Down SNMP-Traps Encapsulation: ENET2 Statistics Packets pps Bytes bps Bundle: Input : 0 0 0 0 Output: 0 0 0 0 Protocol inet, Flags: None Addresses, Flags: Dest-route-down Is-Preferred Is-Primary Destination: 10.10.10/24, Local: 10.10.10.1, Broadcast: 10.10.10.255
Meaning
The output here shows that the link is down and that no PDUs are being exchanged (when there is no other traffic flowing on the link).
