disable sharing

disable sharing port

Description

Disables a load-sharing group of ports, also known as a LAG (Link Aggregation Group).

Syntax Description

port

Specifies the logical port of a load-sharing group or link aggregation group (LAG). Specifies a port or a combination of the slot and port number.

Default

Disabled.

Usage Guidelines

When sharing is disabled, the logical port retains all configuration including VLAN (Virtual LAN) membership. All other member ports are removed from all VLANs to prevent loops and their configuration is reset to default values.

Any attempt to disable sharing on ports that have MLAG (Multi-switch Link Aggregation Group) configuration is denied with the following error message:

ERROR: Sharing configuration on MLAG ports cannot be modified. Use "disable mlag port <port>" to remove port from MLAG group first.

Example

The following command disables sharing on master logical port 9, which contains ports 9 through 12, on a switch:

disable sharing 9
