Nokia IPSO 4.0 Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces, Logical Configuration, Deleting Aggregation Groups

Logical Configuration

When you have completed the aggregation group, you must configure it with an IP address and so on. Navigate to the Interfaces Configuration page and click the logical name of the group. Network Voyager shows the logical name in the format aexxxc0. For example, the logical name of a group with the ID 100 is ae100c0.

If you create a link aggregation group but do not add any interfaces to it, the logical name of the group does not appear on the Interfaces Configuration page. You cannot configure an aggregation group with logical information until you have added an interface to the group.

Deleting Aggregation Groups

To delete an aggregation group, you must first remove all the ports from the group. To remove a port from an aggregation group, click Delete next to the appropriate port and click Apply. Click Save to make the change permanent.

You cannot remove the primary port from an aggregation group unless the other ports have been removed, but you can remove all the ports simultaneously. You can simultaneously remove all the ports and delete the group by clicking all the Delete checkboxes and then clicking Apply. Click Save to make the change permanent.

Gigabit Ethernet Interfaces

You can configure the parameters listed in Table 4 for each Gigabit Ethernet interface.

For information on how to complete the configuration of an Gigabit Ethernet interface, see “To configure an Ethernet interface” on page 35.

Table 4 Gigabit Ethernet Interface Parameters

Parameter	Description
Active	Select On to enable the interface, select Off to disable the interface.
	These selections appear on both the main Interface Configuration page and the
	pages for each individual interface.
Link Trap	Click On or Off to enable or disable the linkup/linkdown traps for the interface.
	Default is On for all physical interfaces.
Flow Control	You can implement flow control to reduce receiving-buffer overflows, which can
	cause received packets to be dropped, and to allow local control of network
	congestion levels. With the flow control On, the Gigabit Ethernet card can send
	flow-control packets and respond to received packets.
	Default is Off.
Link Recognition	Specify how many seconds a link must be stable before the interface is declared
Delay	up.
	Default is 6; range is 1-255.
