Configuring the LACP Interval

By default, the actor and partner send LACP packets every second. You can configure the interval at which the interfaces send LACP packets by including the periodic statement at the [edit interfaces interface-name aggregated-ether-options lacp] hierarchy level:



[edit interfaces interface-name aggregated-ether-options
lacp]

periodic interval;

The interval can be fast (every second) or slow (every 30 seconds). You can configure different periodic rates on active and passive interfaces. When you configure the active and passive interfaces at different rates, the transmitter honors the receiver’s rate.

Note: Source address filtering does not work when LACP is enabled. For more information about source address filtering, see Enabling Ethernet MAC Address Filtering.

Percentage policers are not supported on aggregated Ethernet interfaces with the CCC protocol family configured. For more information about percentage policers, see the JUNOS Policy Framework Configuration Guide.

Generally, LACP is supported on all untagged aggregated Ethernet interfaces. For more information, see Configuring Untagged Aggregated Ethernet Interfaces.

For M-series routers with enhanced Flexible PIC Concentrators (FPCs) and T-series routing platforms, LACP over VLAN-tagged aggregated Ethernet interfaces is supported. For 8-port, 12-port, and 48-port Fast Ethernet PICs, LACP over VLAN-tagged interfaces is not supported.
