Specifies the aggregator ports. An aggregator can contain any
number of ports on the switch. You can identify the ports individually
(for example, 3,7,10), as a range (for example, 5-11), or both (for
example, 2,4,11-14).

Aggregator.

The aggregator is modified on the switch.

The modified aggregator is now ready for network operations.

Deleting an

Aggregator

This procedure deletes an aggregator from the switch. The ports that are
members of the aggregator stop transmitting LACPDU packets after the
aggregator is deleted.

Caution

Disconnect the cables from the ports of the aggregator before
performing the following procedure. Deleting an aggregator
without first disconnecting the cables can create loops in your
network topology. Data loops can result in broadcast storms and
poor network performance.
