To handle the network traffic of distributed port groups by using a LAG, you assign physical NICs to the LAG ports and set the LAG as active in the teaming and failover order of distributed port groups.
Failover Order | Uplinks | Description |
---|---|---|
Active | A single LAG | You can only use one active LAG or multiple standalone uplinks to handle the traffic of distributed port groups . You cannot configure multiple active LAGs or mix active LAGs and standalone uplinks. |
Standby | Empty | Having an active LAG and standby uplinks and the reverse is not supported. Having a LAG and another standby LAG is not supported. |
Unused | All standalone uplinks and other LAGs if any | Because only one LAG must be active and the Standby list must be empty, you must set all standalone uplinks and other LAGs to unused. |
