Description

Customer has below setting under bundle interface.


      lacp {

        active;

        hold-time up 60;


But when bundle interface flapped only, no member interface flap, the bundle interface came up immediately, no damping of bundle interface for 1 min(60 secs)

Symptoms

Customer has below setting under bundle interface.


      lacp {

        active;

        hold-time up 60;


But when bundle interface flapped only, no member interface flap, the bundle interface came up immediately, no damping of bundle interface for 1 min(60 secs)

Solution

When there is no member interface flap, only bundle interface flapped due to BFD missing keepalives, the LACP hold-time up 60 is not damping the bundle interface.

Can use bundle interface hold-time up to damping the bundle interface.

e.g.

set interfaces ae23 aggregated-ether-options lacp hold-time up 120.


Please note if both ae interface and member interface flapped with set of both ae and lacp hold-time, then both hold-time will kicked in.

 

e.g.

If both ae and member interface flapped with below setting, then 4 minutes for the ae to be marked UP.

set interfaces ae23 hold-time up 120000. << 2 mins

set interfaces ae23 aggregated-ether-options lacp hold-time up 120. << 2 mins
