MLXe and link aggregation 802.3ad

MLXe and link aggregation 802.3ad

Hello,

I was curious if any one knew wether my MLXe-8 supports link aggregation?  I looked at the manual and logged into the switch itself and can't find any mention of it.  Upon executing "link-" and tabbing for command completion, I don't see any mention of the "link-aggregate configure key"  command that I am used to seeing in previous generation Foundry switches.  I have no-route-only configured basically turning it into a layer 2 switch.  This is a good deal worrisome so hopefully some one can shed some light.

LAG/LACP is mentioned in the Layer 2 Configuration guide:

Under: XMR Series and MLX Series Link Aggregation.

 

And yes, you configured the LAG correctly.

Welp, a little follow up, I found this solution very odd.  I performed the following commands from enable mode;

lag "ANX" static id 1

ports ethernet 5/1 to 5/4

primary-port 5/1

deploy

And it seems to be working. Although I'm totally unsure if this is correct and didn't see anything in the manual that I have.

BTW does any one have a good manual for the MLXe?  Mine didn't have the lag command reference and I only guessed after tabbing for command completion to see what values were possible.
