ƒon — Forces the port to join a channel.

ƒauto — Allows the port to join a channel as a result of an LACP operation.

Default Configuration

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet) mode

User Guidelines

Turning off auto-negotiation on an aggregate link may, under some circumstances make it non operational. If the other side has auto-negotiation turned on, it may re-synchronize all members of the aggregated link to half-duplex operation, and may, as per the standard, set them all to Inactive.

When a port is added to a LAG, it acquires the trunk properties, as set by the administrator. If the port cannot be configured accordingly, it will not be added to the LAG, and the user will get an appropriate error message. However, if the first port to join the LAG is one which cannot be configured according to the administrative settings of the LAG, the port will nonetheless be added to the LAG, using its port-default settings. An error message is generated; however, it is important to note that, since it is then the ONLY port of the LAG, the whole LAG at that point operates at the port’s settings, instead of the LAG administrative settings.

Example

The following example shows how port e5 is configured to port-channel number 1 without LACP.

Console (config)# interface ethernet e5

Console (config-if)#channel-group 1 mode on
