Update LAG Mode

You can update LAG modes from the GUI.

To update LAG modes from the GUI:
  1. From the blueprint, navigate to Staged > Physical > Topology and select the node that needs an updated LAG mode. In our example, we've selected leaf3.
    Network management interface showing physical topology with spine nodes, leaf nodes, connected devices, filters, and indicators for uncommitted changes.
    The Topology selection view appears.
  2. From the Neighbors view (default view), select the interface check box to see the operations available for that link (and that you have permissions for).
    Network topology interface screenshot showing tabs for Topology, Nodes, Links, Interfaces, Racks, Pods. Selected Rack: evpn_single_001, Node: leaf3. Neighbors: spine1 via xe-0/0/2, spine2 via xe-0/0/2, switch3-server1 via n/a. Interface xe-0/0/2 checkbox selected, dropdown for operations: Form LAG, Update LAG mode, Update link tags, Update link speed, Edit interface tags, Delete link, Disable interface. Red text highlights checkbox function. Yellow indicator for uncommitted changes.
  3. Click Update LAG mode.
    The Update Link LAG Mode dialog opens.
  4. Select the new LAG mode:
    • LACP (Active) - actively advertises LACP BPDU even when neighbors do not.
    • LACP (Passive) - doesn't generate LACP BPDU until it sees one from a neighbor.
    • Static LAG (no LACP) - Static LAGs don't participate in LACP and will conditionally operate in forwarding mode.
    • No LAG - The link is not part of a LAG.
    Update Link Aggregation Group mode between leaf3 and switch3-server1. Current mode: LACP Active. Options: LACP Passive, Static LAG no LACP, No LAG. Update button available.
  5. Click Update.
The changes are staged and you're returned to the Topology selection view.

When you're ready to activate your changes, go to the Uncommitted tab to review and commit (or discard) your changes.
