Modifying Dynamic Link Aggregate Group
Parameters
The table on page 13-3 lists default group and port settings for Alcatel’s dynamic link aggregation soft-
ware. These parameters ensure compliance with the IEEE 802.3ad specification. For most networks, these
default values do not need to be modified or will be modified automatically by switch software. However,
if you need to modify any of these default settings see the following sections to modify parameters for:
Dynamic aggregate groups beginning on page 13-19
Dynamic aggregate actor ports beginning on page 13-23
Dynamic aggregate partner ports beginning on page 13-28.
Note. You must create a dynamic aggregate group before you can modify group or port parameters. See
“Configuring Dynamic Link Aggregate Groups” on page 13-10 for more information.
