Working with Management Aggregation

Management Aggregation (MAGG) is a High Availability and Load Sharing solution for management interfaces. You can create Bonds that put physical management interfaces together in one virtual interface.

To create a new management Bond, run one of these commands:

  • add bonding group <bond_id> mgmt
  • add bonding group <bond_id> mgmt interface <mgmt_interface_name>

The second command creates the management Bond and adds a slave management interface with one step.

Note: You must use the mgmt parameter only when you create a new management Bond. For all other configuration activities, use the standard commands and parameters without the mgmt parameter. For more information, see Configuring Link Aggregation.

Limitations:

  • You cannot include ethX-Mgmt4 interfaces in a management Bond
  • You cannot configure VLANs for a management Bond
  • A Bond can be for Data or Management, but not both
  • We recommend that you do not mix 1G and 10G management interfaces in a Bond

Example

This example creates a management Bond with two slaves:

> add bonding group 4 mgmt interface eth1-Mgmt3
> add bonding group 4 interface eth2-Mgmt3
> set bonding group 4 mode 8023AD

> show bonding group 4
