UCS Ethernet uplink Portchannel LACP mode

[davidcheung]

Hi,

As UCS just support LACP for uplin portchannel, could anybody advise which mode(active, passive or on) the portchannel LACP is running on?

Thank you very much!

The Fabric Interconnects only support LACP Active in End-Host-Mode.  As with Cisco best practice, host access is active, while your Dist. switches would likely be passive (Best Practice) or active.

Regards,

Hi Robert,

Thank you very much for your prompt reply.

So do you mean that UCS will run LACP on active mode when FI is configured in end host mode?

I've checked and "Active" mode is the only option in both EHM and Switch mode.
