ES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch

)All ports are in full-duplex mode.

)Ports are of the same speed.

)All ports are Access ports and belong to the same VLAN or are all Trunk ports.

)If the ports are Trunk ports, then their “Allowed VLAN” and “Native VLAN” property should also be the same.

If Port Channel is configured manually or dynamically on ES4710BD, the system will automatically set the port with the smallest number to be Master Port of the Port Channel. If spanning tree is enabled in the switch, spanning tree protocol will regard Port Channel as a logical port and send BPDU frames via the master port.

Port aggregation is closely related with switch hardware. ES4710BD series allow physical port aggregation of any two switches, maximum 8 port groups and 8 ports in each port group are supported.

Once ports are aggregated, they can be used as a normal port. ES4710BD has a built-in aggregation interface configuration mode, the user can perform related configuration in this mode just like in the VLAN and physical port configuration mode.

1Create a port group in Global Mode.

2Add ports to the specified group from the Port Mode of respective ports.

3Enter port-channel configuration mode.

1. Creating a port group

Command

Explanation

Global Mode

 

port-group <port-group-number>[load-balance { src-mac

Creates or deletes a port group

dst-mac dst-src-mac src-ip dst-ipdst-src-ip}]

and sets the load balance

method for that group.

no port-group <port-group-number> [ load-balance]
