Chapter Link Aggregation Control Protocol Commands 6 channel-group Enables Link Aggregation on an interface. Synopsis channel-group number mode [active | passive | on] [type standard | brocade] no channel-group Operands number mode active passive on type standard brocade Specifies a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) port channel-group number to which this link should administratively belong to. The range of valid values is 1-63. Specifies the mode of Link Aggregation. Enables the initiation of LACP negotiation on an interface. Disables LACP on an interface. Enables static link aggregation on an interface. Specifies the type of LAG. Specifies the 802.3ad standard-based LAG. Specifies the Brocade proprietary hardware-based trunking. Defaults By default, the type is set to standard. Command Interface configuration mode Modes Description Use this command to add an interface to a port-channel specified by the channel-group number. This command enables link aggregation on an interface, so that it may be selected for aggregation by the local system. Use the no channel-group command to remove the port-channel members. Usage Guidelines Only a maximum of 24 LAGs can be created. Note the following: • A maximum of four link aggregation groups can be created per switch when the type is set to brocade. • A maximum of four links can become part of a single aggregation group when the type is set to brocade and they must be on the same port-channel. • Links 0-7 belong to port-channel 1; links 8-15 belong to port-channel 2, and links 16-23 belong to port-channel 3. • For the standard type, a maximum of 16 links can be aggregated per aggregation group and they can be members of any port-channel.

number
Specifies a Link Aggregation Group (LAG) port channel-group number to
which this link should administratively belong to
.
The range of valid values is
1-63.
mode
Specifies the mode of Link Aggregation.
active
Enables the initiation of LACP negotiation on an interface.
passive
Disables LACP on an interface.
on
Enables static link aggregation on an interface.
type
Specifies the type of LAG.
standard
Specifies the 802.3ad standard-based LAG.
brocade
Specifies the Brocade proprietary hardware-based trunking.
Defaults
By default, the type is set to standard.
Command
Modes
Interface configuration mode
Description
Use this command to add an interface to a port-channel specified by the channel-group number.
This command enables link aggregation on an interface, so that it may be selected for aggregation
by the local system. Use the
no channel-group
command to remove the port-channel members.
Usage
Guidelines
Only a maximum of 24 LAGs can be created. Note the following:
A maximum of four link aggregation groups can be created per switch when the
type
is set to
brocade
.
A maximum of four links can become part of a single aggregation group when the
type
is set to
brocade
and they must be on the same port-channel.
Links 0-7 belong to port-channel 1; links 8-15 belong to port-channel 2, and links 16-23
belong to port-channel 3.
For the
standard
type, a maximum of 16 links can be aggregated per aggregation group and
they can be members of any port-channel.
Examples
To set the channel-group number to 4 and the mode to active:
