lacp port-priority

Configures the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) port priority of a member port of a port-channel.

Syntax

lacp port-priority value

no lacp port-priority

Parameters

value: Specifies the priority. Valid values range from 1 through 65535. A lower number takes priority over a higher number. The default value is 32768.

Modes

Interface subtype configuration mode.

Usage Guidelines

An LACP port priority is configured on each port using LACP. The port priority determines which ports should be put in standby mode when there is a hardware limitation that prevents all compatible ports from aggregating.

A link with higher priority (smaller in value) gets preference over a link with lower priority (greater in value).

The no form of the command returns the default value.

Examples

The following example sets the LACP port priority to 1000 for an Ethernet interface.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# interface ethernet 0/2
device(conf-if-eth-0/2)# lacp port-priority 1000
