Commands
Note: Only one LACP system priority can be set on a Matrix Series device, using either the set lacp
asyspri command (“set lacp asyspri” on page 4-60), or the set port lacp command (“set port lacp”
on page 4-66).
Note: To aggregate, underlying physical ports must be running in full duplex mode and must be of
the same operating speed.
