NETGEAR 8800 User Manual enable sharing grouping {algorithm [port-based | address-based {L2 | L3 | L3_L4 | custom}]} {lacp | health-check} disable sharing Note: All ports that are designated for the LAG must be removed from all VLANs prior to configuring the LAG. Adding and Deleting Ports in a Load-Sharing Group Ports can be added or deleted dynamically in a load-sharing group, or LAG. To add or delete ports from a load-sharing group, use the following commands: configure sharing add ports configure sharing delete ports Note: See Configuring LACP on page 133 for the maximum number of links, selected and standby, per LACP. Configuring the Load Sharing Algorithm For some traffic on selected platforms, you can configure the load sharing algorithm as described in Load-Sharing Algorithms on page 126. The commands for configuring load sharing algorithms are: enable sharing grouping {algorithm [port-based | address-based {L2 | L3 | L3_L4 | custom}]} {lacp | health-check} Configuring LACP To configure LACP, you must, again, first create a LAG. The first port in the LAG serves as the logical port for the LAG. This is the reference port used in configuration commands. It can be thought of as the logical port representing the entire port group, and it serves as the LAG Group ID. To create a LAG for LACP: 1. Create a LAG, using the following command: enable sharing grouping {algorithm [port-based | address-based {L2 | L3 | L3_L4 | custom}]} {lacp | health-check} The port you assign using the first parameter becomes the logical port for the link aggregation group and the LAG Group ID when using LACP. This logical port must also be included in the port list of the grouping itself. 2. If you want to override the default prioritization in LACP for a specified LAG, use the following command: Chapter 5. Configuring Slots and Ports on a Switch | 133
