lacp admin-key (Ethernet Interface)

This command configures a port's LACP administration key. Use the no form to
restore the default setting.

Syntax

lacp {actor | partner} admin-key key
[no] lacp {actor | partner} admin-key

actor - The local side an aggregate link.
partner - The remote side of an aggregate link.
key - The port admin key must be set to the same value for ports that belong

to the same link aggregation group (LAG). (Range: 0-65535)

Default Setting

0

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet)

Command Usage

• Ports are only allowed to join the same LAG if (1) the LACP system priority

matches, (2) the LACP port admin key matches, and (3) the LACP port
channel key matches (if configured).

• If the port channel admin key (lacp admin key - Port Channel) is not set when

a channel group is formed (i.e., it has the null value of 0), this key is set to the
same value as the port admin key (lacp admin key - Ethernet Interface) used
by the interfaces that joined the group.

• Once the remote side of a link has been established, LACP operational

settings are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for the
partner only applies to its administrative state, not its operational state, and
will only take effect the next time an aggregate link is established with the
partner.

Example

Console(config)#interface ethernet 1/5
Console(config-if)#lacp actor admin-key 120
Console(config-if)#
