Interface Net (LAG)

Link Aggregation (LAG) is the combined collection of physical ports.  LAG increases total throughput beyond what a single connection can sustain and provides redundancy where all but one of the physical links may fail without losing connectivity. 

The interface>net commands are used to act on the Uplink LAGs.  The system names the Uplink LAGs as NET1.. NET12 and any allowed NET interface can be configured to use any port.  If the system on the far end is not using a LAG, simply place a single port in the LAG, and it will be treated as a normal port.  This allows the addition of ports to the NET interface without any loss of service or hits to the link. 

 

NET Interface Attributes 

Attribute  Values  Default  Required Description
Aid  NET..NET12 N/A Y The name of the current LAG, values are NET1 through NET12
Interface-type  Uplink Uplink N Only Uplink LAGS supported.
Admin-state enabled | disabled Enabled  N Enabled by default on creation can be overridden.
Uplink-interface - Uplink interface configuration parameters
Aid  NET<id>   Y  
Ports [ SFP1-1-x

| QSFP1-2-x ]

N/A Y List of ports to add to the LAG.  LAG is only operational after ports have been assigned.
Note: When entering list-based attributes, the user must enclose the members of the list in square brackets, and the user MUST have spaces between the brackets and the first and last data member.
Description Text N/A N Description of the port entered by the user.  Description must be enclosed in quotes ("Description text") to allow a description with spaces.
Enable-pause-frames  true | false False  N Enable or Disable pause frames on the LAG.
Lag-speed auto | 1g |10g | 25g | 40g | 50g | 100g | auto-1-g | auto-10g Autodetect  N LAG speed of autodetect will be detected based on the installed module. The first module installed will be populated by all members of the LAG. It can be explicitly configured. Removing all modules will return the lag to auto.
Hash-algorithm Src-mac | dst-mac | src-dst-mac | src-ip | dst-ip | src-dst-ip Src-dst-mac N Hashing algorithm for load balancing of packets across the link. 
Pvid  1..4094  1 N Vlan to assign to untagged traffic.  VLANs 4000-4007, 4010-4012 are reserved for internal use. 
Pvid-priority  0..7  0 N Priority to assign to untagged traffic.
