Chapter 11: LACP Port Trunking Commands

Section I: Basic Operations

ADD LACP PORT

Syntax

add lacp aggregator=

name

port=

port

Parameters

aggregator

Specifies the name of the aggregator. The name is

case-sensitive.

port

Specifies the port to be added to the aggregator. You

can add more than one port at a time. You can specify
the ports individually (for example, 5,7,22), as a range
(for example, 18-20), or both (for example, 1,14-16).

Description

This command adds ports to an existing aggregator. You must identify the
aggregator by its name. To display the names of the aggregators on the
switch, refer to “SHOW LACP” on page 177. To create an aggregator,
refer to “CREATE LACP AGGREGATOR” on page 167.

Caution

A network cable should not be connected to a port on the switch
until after the port is added to the aggregator. Connecting the cable
before the port is a part of an aggregator can result in loops in your
network topology, which can result in broadcast storms and poor
network performance.

Note

Before adding a port to an aggregator, verify that the port’s speed is
set to Auto-Negotiation or 100 Mbps, full-duplex. Aggregate trunks
do not support half-duplex mode.

Examples

The following command adds ports 8 and 22 to an aggregator named
“agg_1”:

add lacp aggregator=agg_1 port=8,22
