Inactive Reason
Reason code indicating why a port is inactive (that is, unselected) for
receiving/transmitting user data. For the meanings of the reason codes, see the
bottom of the page shown in Figure 179.
Partner Port Name of the peer port.
Partner Port State
State information of the peer port, represented by letters A through H.
ï‚· A indicates that LACP is enabled.
ï‚· B indicates that LACP short timeout has occurred. If B does not appear, it
indicates that LACP long timeout has occurred.
ï‚· C indicates that the link is considered as aggregatable by the sending system.
ï‚· D indicates that the link is considered as synchronized by the sending system.
ï‚· E indicates that the sending system considers that collection of incoming
frames is enabled on the link.
ï‚· F indicates that the sending system considers that distribution of outgoing
frames is enabled on the link.
ï‚· G indicates that the receive state machine of the sending system is using the
default operational partner information.
ï‚· H indicates that the receive state machine of the sending system is in the
expired state.

Link aggregation and LACP configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 180, Switch A and Switch B are connected to each other through their Layer 2
Ethernet ports GigabitEthernet 1/0/1 through GigabitEthernet 1/0/3.
Aggregate the ports on each device to form a link aggregation group, thus balancing
incoming/outgoing traffic across the member ports.
