Goal

Solution

Applies to:

Goal

 To show an example of how to configure a Link Aggregation between Solaris and a Sun Ethernet Switch

Solution

 Topology:


Solaris 10 Host                                       Sun Ethernet Switch                              
          AGGR1                                        Po1/channel-group 1
T2000 e1000g2 ----------------------------Es2-64 port Ex 0/50
          e1000g3 ----------------------------Es2-64 port Ex 0/51



Solaris 10 side configuration steps:

bash-3.2# dladm create-aggr -l active -d e1000g2 -d e1000g3 1
bash-3.2# ifconfig aggr1 plumb
bash-3.2# ifconfig aggr1 inet 11.11.11.7 netmask 255.255.255.0 up



Sefos/Switch Configuration Steps:

  ES2-> cd fs_cli
  cd: Connecting to Fabric Switch CLI

  SEFOS# config terminal
  SEFOS(config)# int port-channel 1
  SEFOS(config-if)# no shut
  SEFOS(config-if)# ex
  SEFOS(config)# int ex 0/50
  SEFOS(config-if)# channel-group 1 mode active
  SEFOS(config-if)# no shut
  SEFOS(config-if)# ex
  SEFOS(config)# int ex 0/51
  SEFOS(config-if)# channel-group 1 mode active
  SEFOS(config-if)# no shut
  SEFOS(config-if)# end
  SEFOS# writ startup-config <-------------------------Save Running-Config

Check the status from the SEFOS side:

  SEFOS# show etherchannel summary

   Flags:
   D -  down               P - in port-channel
   I - stand-alone  H - Hot-standby (LACP only)
   U - in-use       d - default port
   E - ErrDisabled
   R - Layer3
  AD - Admin Down      AU - Admin Up
  OD - Operative Down  OU - Operative Up

  Number of channel-groups in use: 1
  Number of aggregators: 1

  Group  Port-channel    Protocol   Ports
  -------------------------------------------------------------------------

  1      Po1(U)[AU,OU]   LACP       Ex0/50(P),Ex0/51(P)

========================================================================================

Check from the Solaris Side:


  bash-3.2# ifconfig aggr1
  aggr1: flags=1000843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4> mtu 1500 index 5
          inet 11.11.11.7 netmask ffffff00 broadcast 11.11.11.255
          ether 0:14:4f:7e:6c:8c

  bash-3.2# dladm show-aggr -L
  key: 1 (0x0001) policy: L4      address: 0:14:4f:7e:6c:8c (auto)
                  LACP mode: active       LACP timer: short
      device    activity timeout aggregatable sync  coll dist defaulted expired
      e1000g2   active   short   yes          yes   yes   yes    yes    no
      e1000g3   active   short   yes          yes   yes   yes    yes    no
