• Source/Destination MAC addresses
• Source/Destination IP addresses
Configuration restrictions and guidelines
Follow these guidelines when you configure a link aggregation group:
• To ensure stable aggregation state and service continuity, do not change port attributes or
class-two configurations on any member port. If you must, make sure you understand its impact
on the live network. Any port attribute or class-two configuration change might affect the
aggregation state of link aggregation member ports and ongoing traffic.
• Avoid assigning ports to a static aggregation group that has reached the limit on Selected ports.
These ports will be placed in Unselected state to avoid traffic interruption on the current
Selected ports. However, a device reboot can cause the aggregation state of member ports to
change.
