Syntax

lacp {actor | partner} system-priority priority

no lacp {actor | partner} system-priority

actor - The local side an aggregate link.

partner - The remote side of an aggregate link.

priority - This priority is used to determine link aggregation group (LAG) membership, and
to identify this device to other switches during LAG negotiations. (Range: 0-65535)

Command Mode

Interface Configuration (Ethernet)

Command Usage

Port must be configured with the same system priority to join the same LAG.

System priority is combined with the switch’s MAC address to form the LAG identifier. This
identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP negotiations with other systems.

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 system-priority 3

Console(config-if)#

lacp admin-key (Port Channel)

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

Syntax

lacp admin-key key

no lacp admin-key

key - The port channel admin key is used to identify a specific link aggregation group (LAG)
during local LACP setup on this switch. (Range: 0-65535)
