ParameterDescription

IFNAME | IFNAME...

An argument that defines the physical network interfaces (parent interfaces) that will be used for aggregation.

port|-port

Enables link aggregation on the device. Creates logical "lagN" interface in the system and assigns parent physical interfaces to it. "-port" removes one or more parent interfaces from configuration.
statusDisplays the "aggregation id" value, the load on each of the parent interfaces and its status.
migrate|-migrateEnables/disables existing sessions migration between the available parent interfaces in case of the difference in the overload. By default, migration is allowed.
balance|-balanceEnables/disables distribution of new-coming sessions between the available parent interfaces depending on their load. By default, balancing is enabled.
mode (stand|fast)Sets the LACP mode. In "standard" mode, LACP acts in accordance to the IEEE 802.3ad standard. In "fast" mode, IW proprietary extensions are used: the timeout value is reduced to 2 seconds, the current network interface load information is added to the packet reserve fields, allowing to speed up the LACP response significantly depending on network conditions, optimize the aggregation systems, and obtain more accurate statistics.
clearRemoves the "lagN" interface configuration.
loadmShows the load statistics in real time on each of the parent interfaces.

Examples

Creates logical "lag1" interface, using both device Ethernet interfaces. Assign an "10.10.30.16/24" IP address to created interface. Activate the logical interface.

Code Block
languagetext
themeEmacs
lag 1 port eth0 eth1
ifconfig lag1 10.10.30.16/24
ifconfig lag1 up
lag1 link administratively up

Remove "eth1" interface from configuration.
