1All ports in the link aggregates are operational.

2 Normalized port cost is lower than lan901.

3 Normalized port cost is lower than lan900.

4 Normalized port cost is lower than lan901.

5 Normalized port cost is lower than lan901.

6 Normalized port cost is lower than lan901.

7 This behavior is the same as if lan902 were a priority-based failover group.
