LAG interface states

An active LACP interface.

Data frames are received through the aggregate link and sent onto the intended destination.

Data frames are transmitted through the aggregate link to reach the intended destination.

The link can be used as part of an aggregate.

The link has the default state of the neighbor switch.

The link is used as an individual link.

With the long timeout, an LACPDU is sent every 30 seconds. If no response comes from its partner after three LACPDUs are sent (90 seconds), a timeout event occurs. The LACP state machine then transitions to the appropriate state based on its current state.

The physical port is connected to the aggregate port that was last chosen by the logical election. The state variable selected is still true.

The hardware might be out of sync with the modified protocol information. If the hardware also has a status of collecting, do not transmit frames because they will be misdelivered.

The port participates in the protocol, as long as it has an active partner.

In the short timeout configuration, an LACPDU is sent every second. If no response comes from its partner after three LACPDUs are sent, a timeout event occurs. The LACP state machine then transitions to the appropriate state based on its current state.
