Configuring LACP for specific LAG members using EDM

Use the following procedure to configure LACP for one or more LAG member ports.

Prerequisites


Attention

To configure the port LACP mode to active, you must set the AdminEnabled value to true and the ActorAdminState value to lacpActive.


Attention

To configure the port LACP mode to passive, you must set the AdminEnabled value to false and clear the lacpActive, aggregation, and shortTimeout check boxes in ActorAdminState.

Procedure steps


Step Action

1

From the navigation tree, double-click VLAN.

2

In the VLAN tree, double-click MLT/LACP.

3

In the work area, click the LACP Ports tab.

4

To select a port to configure, click the port Index.

5

In the port row, double-click the cell in the AdminEnabled column.

6

Select a value from the list—true to enable LACP for the port, or false to disable LACP for the port.

7

In the port row, double-click the cell in the ActorAdminState column.

8

Select an individual or combination of check boxes.

9

Click Ok.

10

In the port row, double-click the cell in the ActorPortPriority column.

11

In the dialog box, edit the value as required.

12

In the port row, double-click the cell in the ActorAdminKey column.

13

In the dialog box, edit the value as required.

14

You can repeat steps 4 through 13 to configure LACP for additional ports.

15

Click Apply.

Variable Definitions

Use the data in this table to configure LACP for LAG members.

Variable Value
Index Indicates the unique identifier allocated to an Aggregator by the local system. This is a read-only cell.
AdminEnabled Specifies the current administrative setting for the port. A value of true enables the port to participate in LACP. A value of false disables the port from participating in LACP.
Attention

You cannot enable ports to participate in LACP if they are members of an enabled MLT.

OperEnabled Indicates the current operational state for the port. A value of true means the port is participating in LACP. A value of false means the port is not participating in LACP. This is a read-only cell.
ActorAdminState Specifies the Actor administrative state. Values include:
  • lacpActive
  • aggregation
  • shortTimeout
ActorOperState Indicates the current Actor operational state. This is a read-only cell.
AggregateOrIndividual Indicates whether the Aggregator represents an Aggregate or an Individual link. This is a read-only cell.
ActorPortPriority Specifies the priority value assigned to this Aggregation port. Values range from 0–65535.
ActorAdminKey Specifies the current administrative value of the Key for the Aggregation Port. Values range from 1–4095.
ActorOperKey Indicates the current operational value of the Key for the Aggregation Port. This is a read-only cell.
SelectedAggID Indicates the identifier value of the Aggregator that this Aggregation Port has currently selected. Zero indicates that the Aggregation Port has not selected an Aggregator, either because it is in the process of detaching from an Aggregator or because no suitable Aggregator exists for it to select. This is a read-only cell.
AttachedAggID Indicates the identifier value of the Aggregator that this Aggregation Port is currently attached to. Zero indicates that the Aggregation Port is not currently attached to an Aggregator. This is a read-only cell.
ActorPort Indicates the port number locally assigned to the Aggregation Port. The port number is communicated in LACPDUs as the Actor_Port. This is a read-only cell.
MltId Indicates the MLT that the port is assigned to. If the port is not assigned to an MLT, the MltId value is 0. This is a read-only cell.
PartnerOperPort The operational port number assigned by the port’s protocol partner. This is a read-only cell.
OperStatus Indicates the operational status of the interface. Values are up (operational) or down (not operational). This is a read-only cell.
