How to disable a port in sharing

Abdul_Raheem — Thu, 06 Oct 2016 19:44:00 GMT

Hi All

How can I remove a particular port once it is configured as sharing?

Suppose the following is the command saved in switch.

“enable sharing 1:24 grouping 1:24,3:24,6:24 algorithm address-based L2 lacp”

Now I need to remove 6:24 from the following command. Is it possible if so I kindly request somebody to suggest me the command for the same.

Can we use below CLI to remove port 2:22 ,2:23 from live sharing port 1:42 . what could be the impact?

Current config :
enable sharing 1:42 grouping 1:42-43, 2:19-23 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp

1:42 1:42 LACP L3_L4 1:42 Y A 0
L3_L4 1:43 Y A 0
L3_L4 2:19 Y A 0
L3_L4 2:20 Y A 0
L3_L4 2:21 Y A 0
L3_L4 2:22 Y A 0
L3_L4 2:23 Y A 0

CLI using to remove port:
disable sharing 1:42
enable sharing 1:42 grouping 2:19-21 algorithm address-based L3_L4 lacp
disable port 2:22-23

Hello,

If you use disable sharing 1:42 the port config get lost in addition if the switch on the other sites is running you can create a loop in some situations. Therefore disable ALL ports in the sharing first.

The better way is to remove single ports with

configure sharing 1:42 delete port 2:22,2:23
