Dell(conf)#interface port-channel 128
Dell(conf-if-po-128)#minimum-links 4
Use the show interfaces port-channel command to view information regarding the configured
LAG or port channel settings. The Minimum number of links to bring Port-channel up is field in the
output of this command displays the configured number of active links for the LAG to be enabled.

Optimizing Traffic Disruption Over LAG Interfaces On IOA
Switches in VLT Mode
When you use the write memory command while an Aggregator operates in VLT mode, the VLT LAG
configurations are saved in nonvolatile storage (NVS).
By restoring the settings saved in NVS, the VLT ports come up quicker on the primary VLT node and
traffic disruption is reduced. The delay in restoring the VLT LAG parameters is reduced (90 seconds by
default) on the secondary VLT peer node before it becomes operational. This makes sure that the
configuration settings of the primary VLT node are synchronized with the secondary VLT peer node
before the secondary VLT mode is up. The traffic outage is less than 200 millisconds during the restart or
switchover of the VLT peer nodes from primary to secondary.
