Meaning

The output shows redundant Ethernet interface information, such as the following:

The LACP state—Indicates whether the link in the bundle is an actor (local or near-end of the link) or partner (remote or far-end of the link).
The LACP mode—Indicates whether both ends of the aggregated Ethernet interface are enabled (active or passive)—at least one end of the bundle must be active.
The periodic link aggregation control PDU transmit rate.
The LACP protocol state—When the link is up, it is collecting and distributing packets.
