Placing a LAG into a Non-default VLAN FTOS(conf)#interface vlan 10 FTOS(conf-if-vl-10)#tagged port-channel 32 Configure the LAG Interfaces as Dynamic After creating a LAG, to configure the dynamic LAG interfaces, use the port-channel-protocol lacp command. Figure 16-3 shows ports 3/15, 3/16, 4/15, and 4/16 added to LAG 32 in LACP mode. Figure 16-3. Creating a Dynamic LAG Example FTOS(conf)#interface TenGigabitethernet 3/15 FTOS(conf-if-te-3/15)#no shutdown FTOS(conf-if-te-3/15)#port-channel-protocol lacp FTOS(conf-if-te-3/15-lacp)#port-channel 32 mode active ... FTOS(conf)#interface TenGigabitethernet 3/16 FTOS(conf-if-te-3/16)#no shutdown FTOS(conf-if-te-3/16)#port-channel-protocol lacp FTOS(conf-if-te-3/16-lacp)#port-channel 32 mode active ... FTOS(conf)#interface TenGigabitethernet 4/15 FTOS(conf-if-te-4/15)#no shutdown FTOS(conf-if-te-4/15)#port-channel-protocol lacp FTOS(conf-if-te-4/15-lacp)#port-channel 32 mode active ... FTOS(conf)#interface TenGigabitethernet 4/16 FTOS(conf-if-te-4/16)#no shutdown FTOS(conf-if-te-4/16)#port-channel-protocol lacp FTOS(conf-if-te-4/16-lacp)#port-channel 32 mode active The port-channel 32 mode active command in Figure 16-3 may be successfully issued as long as there is no existing static channel-member configuration in LAG 32. Set the LACP Long Timeout PDUs are exchanged between port channel (LAG) interfaces to maintain LACP sessions. PDUs are transmitted at either a slow or fast transmission rate, depending on the LACP timeout value. The timeout value is the amount of time that a LAG interface waits for a PDU from the remote system before bringing the LACP session down. The default timeout value is 1 second but you can configure it to be 30 seconds. Invoking the longer timeout might prevent the LAG from flapping if the remote system is up but temporarily unable to transmit PDUs due to a system interruption. Note: The 30-second timeout is available for dynamic LAG interfaces only. You can use the lacp long-timeout command for static LAGs, but it has no effect. 290 | Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
