Deploying a LAG
8
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# port-name orange ethernet 3/1
Syntax: [no] port-name <text> ethernet <slot/port>
The <text> variable specifies the port name. The name can be up to 50 characters long.
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate <slot/port> variable to apply the specified name to an
Ethernet port within the LAG.
Refer to “Allowable characters for LAG names” on page 13 for guidelines on LAG naming
conventions.
Enabling sFlow forwarding on a port within a LAG
You can enable sFlow forwarding on an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-forwarding
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# sflow-forwarding ethernet 3/1
Syntax: [no] sflow-forwarding ethernet <slot/port> | port-name <text>
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate <slot/port> variable to specify a Ethernet port within
the LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.
Use the port-name option with the appropriate <text> variable to specify a named port within the
LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.
Setting the sFlow sampling rate for a port within a LAG
You can set the sFlow sampling rate for an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-subsampling
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.
BigIron RX(config)# lag blue static
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# deploy
BigIron RX(config-lag-blue)# sflow-subsampling ethernet 3/1 512
Syntax: [no] sflow-subsampling ethernet <slot/port> | port-name <text> <num>
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate <slot/port> variable to specify the Ethernet port
within the LAG that you want to configure the sampling rate for.
Use the port-name option with the appropriate <text> variable to specify the named port within the
LAG that you want to configure the sampling rate for.
The <num> variable specifies the average number of packets from which each sample will be
taken. The software rounds the value you enter up to the next odd power of 2. This can be a value
between 512 - 1048576.
Displaying LAG information
You can display LAG information for a BigIron RX switch in either a full or brief mode. The examples
below show both options of the show lag command.
