Ports are only allowed to join the same LAG if (1) the LACP system

priority matches, (2) the LACP port admin key matches, and (3) the

LACP port channel key matches (if configured).

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.

Once the remote side of a link has been established, LACP operational

settings are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for

the partner only applies to its administrative state, not its operational

state.
