Static LAG Considerations
Enabling and Disabling LACP BPDU Forwarding on a Port
For scenarios in which static LAG ports require LACP BPDU packet forwarding, you can issue the
forward-lacp command in the interface configuration mode. Once LACP Forwarding has been
enabled on a static LAG, all the LACP BPDUs will follow regular packet forwarding actions.
When LACP forwarding is enabled, the link OAM packets received on the LACP forwarding enabled
interface will be processed and flooded on the VLAN. If the LACP forwarding is not enabled, the link
OAM packets will be processed and then dropped.
To enable LACP BPDU forwarding, enter the LACP Forwarding command as follows.
Brocade(config-if-e1000-3/5)# forward-lacp
Syntax: forward-lacp
To disable LACP BPDU forwarding, enter the lacp-forwarding command as follows. When a static
LAG is undeployed the LACP BPDU forwarding state of the LAG will be retained on the individual
ports.
Brocade(config-if-e1000-3/5)# [no] forward-lacp
Syntax: [no] forward-lacp
The forward-lacp option specifies that the port of the specified static LAG will be configured for
LACP-BPDU forwarding. If the specified port is a dynamic or keep alive LAG, an error message will
be displayed.
Enabling and Disabling LACP BPDU Forwarding on a LAG
NOTE
The forward-lacp command must be issued on the physical port configuration, not in LAG
configuration.
