LACP

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) configuration manages global LACP behavior on NX-OS devices. LACP negotiates port-channel membership with the peer device. Global settings include the system priority, which decides which device controls port selection, and the system MAC address with its role, which are used in the LACP system identifier. Per-interface settings such as lacp port-priority and lacp rate are configured under the Ethernet interfaces. LACP must be enabled with feature.lacp.

Examples

Example 1: LACP with custom system priority

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature:
          lacp: true
        lacp:
          system_priority: 1000

Example 2: LACP with custom system MAC address and role

nxos:
  devices:
    - name: LEAF1
      configuration:
        feature:
          lacp: true
        lacp:
          system_priority: 1000
          system_mac: "00:11:22:33:44:55"
          system_mac_role: secondary
