Creating and Deleting a Static Link Aggregate Group
The following subsections describe how to create and delete static link aggregate groups with the static
linkagg size command.
Creating a Static Aggregate Group
To create a static aggregate group on a switch by entering static linkagg followed by the user-specified
aggregate number (which can be 0 through 29), size, and the number of links in the static aggregate group
(which can be 2, 4, or 8 on a single switch or 2, 4, 8, or 16 on a stack).
For example, to create static aggregate group 5 that consists of eight (8) links on a switch you would enter:
-> static linkagg 5 size 8
You can create up to 4 link aggregation (both static and dynamic) groups on a single OmniSwitch 6624,
6600-U24, 6600-P24, or 6602-24 switch; up to 8 link aggregation groups on a single 6648 or 6602-48
switch; and up to 30 link aggregation groups per stack.
Note. The number of links assigned to a static aggregate group should always be close to the number of
physical links that you plan to use. For example, if you are planning to use 2 physical links you should
create a group with a size of 2 and not 4 or 8.
As an option you can also specify a name and/or the administrative status of the group by entering static
linkagg followed by the user-specified aggregate number, size, the number of links in the static aggregate
group, name, the optional name (which can be up to 255 characters long), admin state, and either enable
or disable (the default is enable).
For example, to create static aggregate group 5 called “static1” consisting of eight (8) links that is adminis-
tratively disabled enter:
-> static linkagg 5 size 8 name static1 admin state disable
Note. If you want to specify spaces within a name for a static aggregate group the name must be specified
within quotes (e.g., “Static Aggregate Group 5”).
Deleting a Static Aggregate Group
To delete a static aggregation group from a switch use the no form of the static linkagg size command by
entering no static linkagg followed by the number that identifies the group. For example, to remove static
aggregate group 5 from a switch’s configuration you would enter:
-> no static linkagg 5
Note. You must delete any attached ports with the static agg agg num command before you can delete a
static link aggregate group.
