The # supported values are: # # LB_MAC - This algorithm uses a portion of the # destination MAC address to determine # how data flows are distributed across # physical ports in a link aggregation. # # The recommended configuration for # this algorithm is Server to Switch. # # LB_IP - This algorithm uses a portion of the # destination IP address to determine # how data flows are distributed across # physical ports in a link aggregation. # # The recommended configuration for # this algorithm is Server to Router. # Note: At this point, Server-Router # configuration is unsupported. # # LB_PORT - This algorithm uses the TCP or UDP # port number to determine how data # flows are distributed across # physical ports in a link aggregation. # # The recommended configuration for # this algorithm is Server to Server. # # LB_CPU - This algorithm uses the systems # CPU's to determine how data flows # are distributed across the physical # ports in a link aggregation. # # The default value is LB_MAC. # # HP_APA_GROUP_CAPABILITY Sets the Group Capability of the linkagg. # This controls which ports can join this link # aggregate. Only ports which have the same group # capability as the linkagg can join it. # # HP_APA_KEY Sets the Administrative Key of the linkagg. # This controls which ports can join this link # aggregate. Only ports which have the same key # as the linkagg can join it. # # HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY Configure a link aggregation for hot standby mode. # This parameter is mutually exclusive with the # HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE parameter. In addition, the # HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY parameter takes precedence over # HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE parameter. # Supported values are: # on Turn on HOT-STANDBY-MODE on the link # aggregation # off Turn off HOT-STANDBY-MODE on the link # aggregation # # The default value is off. # # HP_APA_MANUAL_LA Manually set ports for the specified link # aggregation. The ports should be specified with # PPA numbers. Each port should be separated by # a ",". # # HP_APA_STATION_ADDRESS Configure a MAC Address on the link aggregate. The # address to be given as a hexadecimal number beginning # with "0x". # # HP_APA_FIXED_MAC Configures a link aggregation to use a fixed MAC # address. The MAC used is selected from one of the # aggregation's member ports. # Supported values are: # on Link aggregation use fixed MAC address # off Link aggregation does not use fixed # MAC address # # The default value is off. # # The parameters listed above can be obtained or set directly via the # lanadmin(1M) command. # # HP_APA_MAX_LINKAGGS This parameter is used to change the number of APA # LinkAggs for HP-UX 11.x systems. The valid value # is from 5 to 50. The default value is 50. # # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE Set the default APA port configuration mode. # Supported values are MANUAL, FEC_AUTO, LACP_AUTO # and LAN_MONITOR. # The default value is MANUAL. # # A port's mode WILL be set to the value of # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE # UNLESS its mode IS specified in the hp_apaportconf # file using variable HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE # For example, # case 1: # the configuration mode of port 1 is NOT set in # hp_apaportconf, # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE is NOT set in hp_apaconf, # then port 1 will be set to MANUAL. # case 2: # the configuration mode of port 1 is NOT set in # hp_apaportconf, # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE IS set to FEC_AUTO, # then port 1 will be set to FEC_AUTO. # case 3: # the configuration mode of port 1 IS set to # LACP_AUTO in hp_apaportconf, # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE IS set to MANUAL, # then port 1 will be set to LACP_AUTO. # # HP_APA_LACP_SYSTEM_ID_MODE Tells APA How to set the LACP System ID. The # values are: # # FIRST_APA_PORT: # Set the LACP System ID to the first APA supported # port. # FIRST_LACP_PORT: Set the LACP System ID to the # first up port that starts LACP. # # The default is FIRST_APA_PORT. # # # HP_APA_USE_SYSLOG This is used to set the logging of selected # APA/LM messages into syslog.log file. # Possible values and its meaning are: # 0 : Do not log messages into syslog.log file. # 1 : Log selected messages into syslog.log file. # Default value is 0. If this variable is not set # in this file or has wrong value, then the default # value is used. # # HP_APA_LACP_TIMEOUT This variable is used to control LACP timeout # value. Possible values and its meaning are: # 0 : Use long LACP timeout. (Default) # 1 : Use short LACP timeout. # Default value is 0. If this variable is not set # in this file or has wrong value, then the default # value is used. # # The following examples illustrate how to use the parameters defined # above. # # HP_APA_MAX_LINKAGGS=25 # HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE=MANUAL # HP_APA_LACP_SYSTEM_ID_MODE=FIRST_APA_PORT # HP_APA_USE_SYSLOG=1 # # HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan900 # HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[0]=LB_CPU # HP_APA_GROUP_CAPABILITY[0]=3 # HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY[0]=off # # ##################################################################### ##################################################################### # The HP_APA_INIT_ARGS and HP_APA_START_LA_PPA are reserved by HP. # They are NOT user changable. ##################################################################### #HP_APA_START_LA_PPA=900 #HP_APA_DEFAULT_PORT_MODE=MANUAL #HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan900 #HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[0]=LB_MAC #HP_APA_GROUP_CAPABILITY[0]=0 #HP_APA_KEY[0]=0 #HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY[0]=off #HP_APA_MANUAL_LA[0]=1 # End of hp_apaconf configuration file
