Modifying an
Aggregator
This procedure explains how to modify an aggregator. You can use this
procedure to change the load distribution method of an aggregator or to
add or remove ports. To modify an aggregator, you need to know its name.
To view the names of the existing aggregators, refer to “Displaying LACP
Port and Aggregator Status” on page 182. It is recommended that you
review the section “LACP Trunk Guidelines” on page 163 before
performing this procedure.
Caution
If you will be adding or removing ports from the aggregator, you
should disconnect all network cables from the ports of the
aggregator on the switch before performing the procedure. Adding
or removing ports without first disconnecting the cables can result in
loops in your network topology, which can result in broadcast storms
and poor network performance.
To modify an aggregator, perform the following procedure:
1. From the Main Menu, type 1 to select Port Configuration.
2. From the Port Configuration menu, type 4 to select Port Trunking and
LACP. The Port Trunking and LACP menu is shown in Figure 41 on
page 168.
3. Type 2 to select LACP Configuration. The LACP (IEEE 8023ad)
Configuration menu is shown in Figure 45 on page 175.
4. Type 4 to select Modify Aggregator.
The Modify LACP (IEEE 8023ad) Aggregator menu is shown in Figure
47.
