Configurations from the scenarios below are examples that demonstrate the potential capabilities of Infinet devices. The configuration may change depending on the model and firmware version. Do not recommend copying the solution data to the hardware without checking. |
The maximum throughput of a single port is limited to the standard 100Base-TX. The throughput of the radio module depending on the MCS and the channel width can be higher. R5000 devices of Lite series can achieve the maximum throughput up to 180 Mbps of the bi-directional aggregated stream. It is not possible to use the maximum throughput of the radio channel in one direction through one 100Base-TX port. However, the combination of ports into one LAG allows achieving the maximum throughput in one direction.

Also, this scenario can be used in point-to-multipoint topologies.

Choose LACP (Standard or Fast mode). "Standard" LACP fully complies with the standard IEEE 802.3ad. “Fast” LACP uses only with Infinet devices and increases efficiency and performance compared default mode.
The "Fast" mode is a proprietary extension of the LACP protocol. Compatibility of this mode is guaranteed only with devices that support the MINT protocol. |
lag N [command] [(port|-port) (IFNAME | IFNAME...)] |
Command | Description | |
---|---|---|
lag N port (IFNAME | IFNAME...)] | Create LAG with name “lagN” and add ports | |
lag N status | Check the status of LAG with name “lagN” | |
lag N migrate lag N -migrate | Allow/disallow existing sessions migration between the available parent interfaces in case of the difference in the overload. By default, migration is allowed | |
lag N balance lag N -balance | Allow/disallow load-depending dispersion of new-coming sessions between the available parent interfaces. By default, balancing is enabled | |
lag N mode | Choose LACP (Standard or Fast mode). "Standard" LACP fully complies with the standard IEEE 802.3ad. “Fast” LACP uses only with Infinet devices and increases efficiency and performance compared default mode
| |
lag N clear | Delete LAG with name "lagN" | |
lag N loadm | Show a load statistics in real time on each of the parent interfaces |
The basic configuration of Link Aggregation. The configuration via GUI is described above.
Configuration via CLI:
Create LAG
lag 0 port eth0 eth1 ifc lag0 up |
Configure management IP for a LAG interface or SVI (optionally)
ifc lag0 10.10.10.1/24 |
Configure switch group
switch group 1 add 2 rf5.0 lag0 switch group 1 start |
