Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

For redundant Ethernet interfaces in a chassis cluster only, configure Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).

Options

• active—Initiate transmission of LACP packets.

• passive—Respond to LACP packets.

• Default—If you do not specify lacp as either active or passive, LACP remains off (the default).

• periodic—Interval for periodic transmission of LACP packets. The options are:

  • fast—Transmit link aggregation control PDUs every second.

  • slow—Transmit link aggregation control PDUs every 30 seconds.

  • Default—If you do not specify periodic as either fast or fast, it is set to fast. If lacp is set to fast, LACP is asking the link partner to send an LACP heartbeat every 1-second. If lacp is set to slow, LACP is asking the link partner to send an LACP heartbeat every 30-seconds.

The remaining statements are explained separately. See CLI Explorer.
