Active.
You must enable sharing and create the LAG prior to assigning this LACP activity mode.
Note
One side of the link must be in active mode in order to pass traffic. If you configure your side in the passive mode, ensure that the partner link is in LACP active mode.
To verify the LACP activity mode, use the show lacp lag group-id detail command.
If you attempt to enter a port number that is different that a LAG group ID, the system returns the following error message:
ERROR: LAG group Id does not existNote
In ExtremeXOS version 11.3, the activity mode cannot be changed from active.
The following command changes the activity mode to passive for the specified LAG group ID:
configure sharing 5:1 lacp activity-mode passive
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.4.
This command is available on ExtremeSwitching 5320, 5420, 5520, and 5720 series switches.
