9.8 port-group mode

Command:

port-group <port-group-number> mode {active | passive | on}

no port-group

Function:

Add a physical port to port channel, the no operation removes specified port from the port channel.

Parameters:

<port-group-number> is the group number of port channel, from 1~14; active enables LACP on the port and sets

it in Active mode; passive enables LACP on the port and sets it in Passive mode; on forces the port to join a port

channel without enabling LACP.

Command mode:

Port Mode.

Default:

Switch ports do not belong to a port channel by default; LACP not enabled by default.

Usage Guide:

If the specified port group does not exist, then print a error message. All ports in a port group must be added in the

same mode, i.e., all ports use the mode used by the first port added. Adding a port in “on” mode is a “forced” action,

which means the local end switch port aggregation does not rely on the information of the other end, port

aggregation will succeed as long as all ports have consistent VLAN information. Adding a port in “active” or “passive”

mode enables LACP. Ports of at least one end must be added in “active” mode, if ports of both ends are added in

“passive” mode, the ports will never aggregate.

Example:

Under the Port Mode of Ethernet1/1, add current port to “port-group 1” in “active” mode.

Switch(Config-If-Ethernet1/1)#port-group 1 mode active
