Parameters

Parameter Type Description
<priority (0-65535)> Integer Enter a value to configure the LACP port priority. This value ranges from 0 to 65535. This port priority is used in combination with LACP port identifier during the identification of best ports in a port channel. The priority determines if the link is an active link or a standby link, when the number of ports in the aggregation exceeds the maximum number supported by the hardware. The links with lower priority become active links. The default is 128.
