egress filters dynamically programmed on CCEPs.

b.) [s]: denotes sources maintained on port hash-list.

Forcing a port up in a basic MCT configuration

In a static trunk environment, Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) images are too small for most
operating systems to leverage LACP during the boot process. As a result, during a PXE build process,
traffic sent by the server is dropped, and the build process can fail.

To correct this situation, a port on an ICX 6650 device connected to a server that is configured as an
MCT client can be set to a “force-up” state so that even if the LACPDU is not received from the server,
the connected port is up and forwards packets.
