Deploying a LAG
6
Use the named option with the appropriate slot/port variable to specify a named port within the
LAG that you want to disable.
When a port is deleted from a deployed static LAG, the LACP BDPU forwarding state of the LAG will
be retained for the deleted port.
Enabling ports within a LAG
You can enable an individual port within a LAG using the enable command.
Brocade(config)# lag blue static
Brocade(config-lag-blue)# deploy
Brocade(config-lag-blue)# enable ethernet 3/1
Syntax: [no] enable ethernet [slot/port] | named name
Use the ethernet option with the appropriate slot/port variable to specify an Ethernet port to be
enabled in the LAG.
Use the named option with the appropriate slot/port variable to specify a named port in the LAG
that you want to enable.
When adding a port to a currently deployed dynamic LAG the LACP BPDU Forwarding configuration
must be the same as the LAG. Follow the procedure
“Enabling and Disabling LACP BPDU
Forwarding on a Port” .
Monitoring an individual LAG port
By default, when you monitor the primary port in a LAG group, aggregated traffic for all the ports in
the LAG is copied to the mirror port. You can configure the device to monitor individual ports in a
LAG, including Ethernet, or named ports. You can monitor the primary port or a secondary port
individually.
You can use only one mirror port for each monitored LAG port. To monitor traffic on an individual
port in a LAG group, enter commands such as the following:
This command enables monitoring of an individual port within a LAG.
Brocade(config)# lag blue static
Brocade(config-lag-blue)# deploy
Brocade(config-lag-blue)# monitor ethe-port-monitored 3/1 ethernet 10/3 both
Syntax: [no] monitor ethe-port-monitored slot/port | named-port-monitored name | ethernet
slot/port [input | output | both]
Use the ethe-port-monitored option with the appropriate slot/port variable to specify an Ethernet
port in the LAG that you want to monitor.
Use the named-port-monitored option with the appropriate slot/port variable to specify a named
port in the LAG that you want monitor.
The ethernet slot/port parameter specifies the port to which the traffic analyzer is attached.
The input | output | both parameters specify the traffic direction to be monitored.
Naming a port in a LAG
You can name an individual port in a LAG using the port-name command within the LAG
configuration as shown in the following.
