How to set up static LAG?

Hi,

 

I would like to setup a LAG, but my switch do not supports LACP, only "Static Link aggregation".

Is it possible to set up an static LAG group with XG (Not an Active-Passive setup to increase availability rather an setup to increase bandwith)?

And if so, how to configure it? I've already tried to consider the offical guide of XG and the KB article about this topic, but they're don't very helpful!

 

Regards

  • Hi Dwayne,

    The XG supports two types of LAG:

    1. Active –Backup which is used for link redundancy
    2. LACP for load lancing

    When the XG is configured to do Active-Backup LAG, it will bundle the defined number of interfaces into the LAG and one interface will work as an Active Slave and the rest will work as Backup Slaves. In events of interface failure, the next link will take over as Active Slave to forward the traffic. This feature is mainly used for link redundancy.

    To configure this, define the LAG on the required interfaces and then take SSH access to the XG firewall and go to option 4. Device Console. Execute the following command,

    set network lag-interface xyz lag-mgt mode active-backup (here, xyz is the name of the LAG interface)

    Thanks,

  • Hi Sachin,

     

    Thank you for your answer.

    Is it also possible to use LAG without LACP to heighthen link bandwith, with more than one active link?
