What is HP trunk group?
The Trunk Group feature allows you to manually configure multiple high-speed load-sharing links between two HP Routing Switches or between an HP Routing Switch and a server. You can configure up to 8 ports as a trunk group, supporting transfer rates of up to 8 Gbps of bi-directional traffic.
How do you set the trunk port on an HP switch?
The switch uses the links you configure with the Port/Trunk Settings screen in the menu interface or the trunk command in the CLI to create a static port trunk. The switch offers two types of static trunks: LACP and Trunk. Trunk configuration protocols describes the trunking options for LACP and Trunk protocols.
How do I turn off LACP on HP switch?
just type in the bits that follow the “#” sign, and make sure the prompts before it look the same (or similar). Where it says (eth-x-x), the x’s will be the beginning and end ports selected (which is dependant on how many ports you have installed). BTW – this will disable LACP on ALL PORTS IN THE SWITCH.
How do you remove the trunk port on an HP switch?
To remove a port from dynamic LACP trunk operation, user must turn off LACP on the port. (On a port in an operating, dynamic LACP trunk, you cannot change between LACP Active and LACP Passive without first removing the LACP operation from the port.)
How do I assign a port to a VLAN on an HP switch?
To assign an access port (in interface view) or multiple access ports (in port group view) to a VLAN:
- Enter system view, use the command: system view.
- Enter interface view or port group view. Enter Layer 2 Ethernet interface view.
- Configure the link type of the ports as access.
- Assign the access ports to a VLAN.
How to configure a port trunk group in hp?
HP Switch(config)# no interface c6 lacp HP Switch(config)# interface c6 lacp passive In the above Example:, if the port on the other end of the link is configured for active LACP or static LACP, the trunked link will be re-established almost immediately.
What does trunk or LACP do on HP ProCurve?
When connecting two HP Procurve switches together using multiple ports, it gives the option of “trunk” or “lacp” (see output below). I have seen it setup both ways, and both seem to work.
What’s the difference between creating a trunk on a ProCurve switch?
Cliff Notes: What’s the difference between creating a trunk on a Procurve switch and enabling LACP on the ports and letting the switch figure the trunk out by itself? Hope this makes sense to someone…thanks! LACP is just a method of bundling 2 or more physical ports (Generally trunk ports) into one logical port.
How to enable a dynamic LACP trunk group?
Enabling a dynamic LACP trunk group In the default port configuration, all ports on the switch are set to disabled. To enable the switch to automatically form a trunk group that is dynamic on both ends of the link, the ports on one end of a set of links must be LACP Active. The ports on the other end can be either LACP Activeor LACP Passive.
