Configure Static and Dynamic ICL

You can configure static and dynamic ICL.

About this task

Follow this procedure to configure static or dynamic ICL.

Procedure

To configure static or dynamic ICL, run the following command:

efa fabric setting update --name <fabric-name> 
         --rack-mct-scheme <static | dynamic>
         --rack-mct-ports <port-list>
         --rack-ld-mct-ports <port-list>

Example

The following is an example output of dynamic ICL configuration:
