Asante Technologies 40240/40480-10G Switch User Manual


 
STP, VLAN, and IGMP settings can only be made for the entire trunk via the
specified port-channel.
Dynamically Creating a Port Channel –
Ports assigned to a common port channel must meet the following criteria:
Ports must have the same LACP system priority.
Ports must have the same port admin key (Ethernet Interface).
If the port channel admin key (lacp admin key - Port Channel) is not set when
a channel group is formed (i.e., it has the null value of 0), this key is set to the
same value as the port admin key (lacp admin key - Ethernet Interface) used
by the interfaces that joined the group.
However, if the port channel admin key is set, then the port admin key must
be set to the same value for a port to be allowed to join a channel group.
If a link goes down, LACP port priority is used to select the backup link.
