Configure the Minimum oper up Links in a Port Channel (LAG) You can configure the minimum links in a port channel (LAG) that must be in "oper up" status for the port channel to be considered in "oper up" status. To configure the minimum links, use the following command in INTERFACE mode: Command Syntax minimum-links number Command Mode INTERFACE Purpose Enter the number of links in a LAG that must be in "oper up" status. Default: 1 Figure 13-14 shows an example of configuring five minimum "oper up" links in a port channel. Figure 13-14. Example of Using the minimum-links Command FTOS#config t FTOS(conf)#int po 1 FTOS(conf-if-po-1)#minimum-links 5 FTOS(conf-if-po-1)# Add or Remove a Port Channel from a VLAN As with other interfaces, you can add Layer 2 port channel interfaces to VLANs. To add a port channel to a VLAN, you must place the port channel in Layer 2 mode (use the switchport command). To add a port channel to a VLAN, use either of the following commands: Command Syntax tagged port-channel id number untagged port-channel id number Command Mode INTERFACE VLAN INTERFACE VLAN Purpose Add the port channel to the VLAN as a tagged interface. An interface with tagging enabled can belong to multiple VLANs. Add the port channel to the VLAN as an untagged interface. An interface without tagging enabled can belong to only one VLAN. To remove a port channel from a VLAN, use either of the following commands: Command Syntax no tagged port-channel id number no untagged port-channel id number Command Mode INTERFACE VLAN INTERFACE VLAN Purpose Remove the port channel with tagging enabled from the VLAN. Remove the port channel without tagging enabled from the VLAN. To see which port channels are members of VLANs, use the show vlan command in EXEC Privilege mode. Interfaces | 237
