HP LACP Configuration

Summary

For Antikor lan line, 2 piece 1GBit/sn load-balanced and will serve as a backup. 3Com switch is working as a backbone. Link Aggregation Control Protocol ( LACP ) : It is a protocol that enables simultaneous operation of multiple uplinks to provide higher bandwidth and redundant connection between two switches.

Network Topology

Configuration

The ethernet ports to be merged into the Member Ethernet area are entered.

	 ProCurve# interface Bridge-Aggregation 1
	 ProCurve# quit

	 ProCurve# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1
	 ProCurve# port link-aggregation group 1
	 ProCurve# quit

	 ProCurve# interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/2
	 ProCurve# port link-aggregation group 1
	 ProCurve# quit

	 ProCurve# interface Bridge-Aggregation 1
	 ProCurve# port link-type trunk
	 ProCurve# quit

Testing

To check LACP settings on the HP Switch side the used command “display link-aggregation verbose”

    GE1/0/2          S       32768    1

For Antikor v2 LACP settings Antikor v2 LACP Configuration follow the documents.

Troubleshooting

Executing Command	Error Message	Solution Proposal
`ping 10.0.0.1`	— Ping statistics for 10.0.0.1 — 5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100.0% packet loss	`display interface GigabitEthernet 1/0/1` with command the port make sure active.
		The port make sure it is not shutdown.
		On the Antikor v2 make sure apply settings.
