ifgrp parameters

William365 — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:45:48 GMT

Hi,

Does anyone know if the ifgrp -mode multimode parameter require any special configuration on the switch itself? Windows 2016 and above provide NIC Teaming without changes to any switch configuration (switches independent), is this something similar to that? Based on the documentation, this mode makes all the ports active for outgoing traffic only. Thoughts?

Thanks.

channel-group x mode active -> makes it LACP

channel-group x mode on -> is NOT LACP

OTher than that, can be access or trunk

multimode_lacp = mode active

multimode = mode on

singlemod = no switch config (would be a standard trunk or access port)
