Assigning a name to a port within a LAG

You can assign a name to an individual port within a LAG using the port-name command within the
LAG configuration as shown in the following.

Brocade(config)# lag blue static

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# deploy

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# port-name orange ethernet 3/1

Syntax: [no] port-name text ethernet [slot/port]

The text variable specifies the port name. The name can be up to 50 characters long.

Use the ethernet option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to apply the specified name to an
Ethernet port within the LAG.

Refer to the Multi-Service IronWare Administration Guide for additional information on LAG naming
conventions.

NOTE

The port name and LAG name cannot use the same name.

Enabling sFlow forwarding on a port in a LAG

You can enable sFlow forwarding on an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-forwarding
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.

Brocade(config)# lag blue static

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# deploy

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# sflow-forwarding ethernet 3/1

Syntax: [no] sflow-forwarding ethernet [slot/port] | port-name [text]

Use the ethernet option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify a Ethernet port within
the LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.

Use the port-name option with the appropriate [text] variable to specify a named port within the
LAG that you want to enable sFlow forwarding for.

Setting the sFlow sampling rate for a port in a LAG

NOTE

The NetIron CES and NetIron CER supports sflow sampling rate configuration per port basis.
The Brocade MLXe, NetIron MLX, and NetIron XMR supports sflow sampling rate configuration per
packet processer basis.

You can set the sFlow sampling rate for an individual port within a LAG using the sflow-subsampling
command within the LAG configuration as shown in the following.

Brocade(config)# lag blue static

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# deploy

Brocade(config-lag-blue)# sflow-subsampling ethernet 3/1 512

Syntax: [no] sflow-subsampling ethernet [slot/port] | port-name [text] num

Use the ethernet option with the appropriate [slot/port] variable to specify the Ethernet port within
the LAG that you want to configure the sampling rate for.
