Overview of Link Networking Requirements CloudEngine 8800

Aggregation
To improve bandwidth and connection reliability, configure a link aggregation group CloudEngine 6800
Understanding Link (LAG) on two directly connected Switches, as shown in Figure 3-20. The requirements
Aggregation are as follows: CloudEngine 7800

Application Scenarios Two active links implement load balancing.

for Link Aggregation One link functions as the backup link. When a fault occurs on an active link, the Related Documents
backup link replaces the faulty link to maintain reliable data transmission.

Configuration Roadmap
Download
The configuration roadmap is as follows:
Share
1. Create an Eth-Trunk and configure the Eth-Trunk to work in LACP mode to
implement link aggregation.
2. Add member interfaces to the Eth-Trunk.
3. Set the LACP system priority and determine the Actor so that the Partner selects
active interfaces based on the Actor interface priority.
4. Set the upper threshold for the number of active interfaces to improve reliability.
5. Set LACP interface priorities and determine active interfaces so that interfaces with
higher priorities are selected as active interfaces.
Procedure
1. Create Eth-Trunk 1 on SwitchA and configure Eth-Trunk 1 to work in LACP mode.
The configuration of SwitchB is similar to the configuration of SwitchA, and is not
mentioned here.

which is higher than the LACP system priority of SwitchB. Member interfaces
10GE1/0/1 and 10GE1/0/2 become the active interfaces and are in Selected state.
Interface 10GE1/0/3 is in Unselect state. Two links are active and work in load
balancing mode, and one link is the backup link.
