Command Usage
• Ports are only allowed to join the same LAG if (1) the LACP system priorit y
matches, (2) the LACP port admin key matches, and (3) the LACP port
channel key matches (if configured).
• If the port channel admin key (
lacp admin key
- Port Channel) is not set when
a channel group is formed (i.e., it has the null val ue of 0), this key is set to the
same value as the port admin key (
lacp admin key
- Ethernet Interface) used
by the interfaces that joined the group.
• Once the remote side of a link h as b een e stabli shed, LA CP op eratio nal
settings are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP set tings for the
partner only applies to its administrative state, not its operat ional sta te, an d
will only take effect the next time an aggregat e link is es tablishe d with th e
partner.
