Configure a Static LAG

This procedure assumes that you are creating a LAG with a LAG ID of 4 on slot 0, for ports 3,4,7, and 8. The LAG will use the default value for autonegotiation.

You can perform this task using either the CLI or the GUI. For the GUI procedure, refer to Create a LAG in Oracle Fabric Manager 5.0.2 Administration Guide. This procedure is for the CLI.

1. Create the LAG on the fabric.

   Specify the first port that you want in the LAG. For example:

   [OFOS] add lag embedded.4 port 3,4,7,8

   ---

   Caution  -  LAGs require a period (not a slash) to differentiate them from a standard slot and port termination. The leaf switch always uses slot 0.

   ---

2. Repeat Step 1 to add individual ports to the LAG.

   ---

   Note -  The total number of ports that you can add to a LAG depends on the number of LAGs configured, with the maximum number of ports ranging from 10 configured in a single LAG to two ports configured in each of five LAGs.

   ---

3. After you have configured the ports in the LAG, verify that the LAG was correctly added to the fabric.

   [OFOS] show lag
   name         state   mac-addr            descr    mode     access-vlan   ports
   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
   embedded.4   down    00:13:97:5D:A0:01            access    1            3,4,7,8

4. Configure vNICs that terminate on the LAG.

   Use the add vnic command.

5. (Optional) If you have not yet set up the Oracle Fabric OS tools to monitor your hardware and software, do that now.

   See Monitoring Hardware and Software.
