LACP

Configure LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) settings on IOS-XR devices. LACP is used to dynamically manage link aggregation groups (LAGs) and provides a standardized method for bundling multiple physical links into a single logical link.

Guidelines and Limitations

Data Normalization

MAC Address Formats

Fields that accept MAC addresses can be in any of three formats:

colon-separated (e.g., "01:01:01:01:01:01")
dash-separated (e.g., "01-01-01-01-01-01")
dotted (e.g., "0101.0101.0101")

All 3 formats can be used interchangeably. The normalization layer coverts the user-specified format to colon-separated before sending to the device.

Example YAML Code:

Example-1: Configure basic LACP system settings with custom MAC address and priority.

iosxr:
  devices:
    - name: router-1
      host: 10.10.10.1:57400
      configuration:
        hostname: router-1
        lacp:
          system_mac: 00:11:00:11:00:11
          system_priority: 1

Example-2: Configure LACP with different priority settings for different devices.

iosxr:
  devices:
    - name: core-router-1
      host: 10.10.10.1:57400
      configuration:
        hostname: core-router-1
        lacp:
          system_mac: 00:11:00:11:00:11
          system_priority: 100
    - name: edge-router-1
      host: 10.10.10.2:57400
      configuration:
        hostname: edge-router-1
        lacp:
          system_mac: 00-22-00-22-00-22
          system_priority: 200
