WLC 5508 LAG setup

[lcaruso]

Hi,

I'm trying to setup a 5508 to put multiple management ports into LAG configuration for Etherchannel to the connected switch. I have not found where to configure that in the GUI. Is that a CLI-only command?

Thanks.

In the GUI it should be under Controller > General > LAG Mode, it is a drop down menu.

Thanks. It must have been the 2504 where you could configure individual ports, as I kept thinking there was an option to do that on 5508. So all ports are LAG once you make that one change.

well with the 5508 you can do individual ports as well, but with LAG you get better aggregate throughput vs the 1G per.

My comment was meant to indicate on a 2504 you can choose individual ports to include in LAG while on the 5508 you cannot. Thanks.

No, you can't pull ports out of LAG. 

You either LAG all the ports or have the ports as individual ports ..

Following are the information

You can Find LAG option under genereal option in controller , GUI.

Verifying Link Aggregation Settings (CLI)

To verify your LAG settings, enter this command:

Configuring Neighbor Devices to Support Link Aggregation

The controller's neighbor devices must also be properly configured to support LAG. 

•Each neighbor port to which the controller is connected should be configured as follows:
