Link aggregation interface commands
Link aggregation interface mode provides the commands to define or modify the configuration of an aggregate interface.
To enter the configuration mode, use the Global link-aggregation command with the name of the aggregate interface.
While in this mode, use the commands in the following table to configure the aggregate interface.
- To view the current configuration, use the show command.
- To restore default values, use the reset command.
- To exit this configuration mode without saving changes to the running configuration, use the cancel command.
- To exit this configuration mode and save changes to the running configuration, use the exit command.
Note: Examples use interfaces that might not apply to your DataPower® Gateway.
Examples are for illustrative purposes of function.
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
| admin-state | This command sets the administrative state for the configuration. |
| hardware-offload | This command indicates whether the aggregate interface offloads TCP/IP packet processing. |
| ip-address | This command assigns the primary network address for the aggregate interface. |
| ip-config-mode | This command identifies the configuration mode for the aggregate interface. |
| ip-route | This command manages static routes in the routing table for the aggregate interface. |
| ip-secondary-address | This command manages secondary network addresses for the aggregate interface. |
| ipv4-default-gateway | This command designates the default IPv4 gateway for the aggregate interface. |
| ipv6-dadtransmits | This command sets the number of IPv6 duplication address detection attempts for the aggregate interface. |
| ipv6-default-gateway | This command sets the interval between IPv6 neighbor discovery attempts for the aggregate interface. |
| ipv6-nd-retransmit-timer | This command sets the interval between IPv6 neighbor discovery attempts for the aggregate interface. |
| lacp-hash | This command sets which hash function that the LACP aggregation uses to determine the interface for outbound packets. |
| lacp-rate | This command sets the rate in the LACP aggregation. |
| lacp-select | This command sets the algorithm for the LACP selection policy. |
| link | This command manages Ethernet interfaces in the aggregate interface. |
| mtu | This command sets the maximum transmission unit of the aggregate interface. |
| standby-authentication | This command changes the authentication string for the aggregate interface in the standby group. |
| standby-distribution-algorithm | This command specifies the distribution algorithm for incoming connections when standby group self-balancing is enabled for the aggregate interface. |
| standby-enable | This command controls whether to allow a standby configuration for the aggregate interface. |
| standby-group | This command sets the number of the standby group for the aggregate interface. |
| standby-hello-timer | This command sets the frequency that the aggregate interface broadcasts hello messages. |
| standby-hold-timer | This command sets the duration that the aggregate interface waits before it attempts a failover. |
| standby-preempt | This command controls preemption in the standby configuration for the aggregate interface. Do not enable preemption. |
| standby-priority | This command sets the priority of the aggregate interface in the standby group. |
| standby-secondary-virtual-ip | This command adds an auxiliary virtual IP address to the aggregate interface. |
| standby-self-balance | This command indicates whether the standby group uses self-balancing for the aggregate interface. |
| standby-virtual-ip | This command sets the virtual IP address of the standby group for the aggregate interface. |
| summary | This command specifies the brief, descriptive summary for the object instance. |
| type | This command defines the mode to use for link aggregation. |
| Command | Purpose |
|---|---|
| disable-aggregation-hardware-offload | This command manages the temporary disabling of hardware offload for the aggregate interface. |
| packet-capture | This command manages the inclusion of the aggregate interface in the standby group. |
| yield-standby | This command manages the inclusion of the aggregate interface in the standby group. |
