Syntax Description
Defaults LACP is supported on all Ethernet interfaces.
The default port priority value is 128.
The default mode is passive for all ports that are assigned to the administrative key.
For differences between PAgP and LACP, refer to the “Guidelines for Port Configuration” section of the
“Configuring EtherChannel” chapter of the Catalyst 6500 Series Software Configuration Guide.
Command Types Switch command.
Command Modes Privileged.
Usage Guidelines This command can only be used for ports belonging to LACP modules. This command cannot be used
on ports running in PAgP mode.
Higher priority values correspond to lower priority levels.
The following usage guidelines apply when you assign an administrat ive key to ports:
•If you do not enter a value for the administrative key, the switch chooses a value automatically.
•If you choose a value for the administrative key, but this value is already used in your switch, all the
ports associated with this value are moved to a new administrative ke y that is assigned automatically.
The previously used value is now associated with new ports.
