Removing Port Members from MLT interface

[rrrgamara]

Hello,

Good day.

I have been trying to remove ports from mlt member but i always have this error:

(config)#no mlt 3 member 1/7

Error: MLT remove ports fail

Am I missing some configurations?

I also tried the no mlt 3 command to see if it would remove all configurations on the mlt but when i created the mlt 3 again it shows that the ports are automatically a member of it.

Appreciate your assistance on this.

Thank you!

Hello,

Don't see what the problem is, for me it works, see example below for a static MLT configuration.

Is it a static or dynamic (LACP) MLT configuration?

• In a static MLT configuration, port and vlan membership is controlled by the MLT.
• In a dynamic/LACP MLT configuration you cannot remove ports by the "no mlt xyz member ...." command because membership is controlled by LACP.
  Go to the port and use the "no lacp enable" command.

ACCESS-1:1(config)#show mlt 119
Mlt Info
==================================================================
PORT MLT MLT PORT VLAN
MLTID IFINDEX NAME TYPE ADMIN CURRENT MEMBERS ORIGIN IDS
------------------------------------------------------------------
119 6262 test access norm norm 1/19-1/22 CONFIG

ACCESS-1:1(config)#no mlt 119 member 1/21-1/22

ACCESS-1:1(config)#show mlt 119
Mlt Info
==================================================================
PORT MLT MLT PORT VLAN
MLTID IFINDEX NAME TYPE ADMIN CURRENT MEMBERS ORIGIN IDS
------------------------------------------------------------------
119 6262 test access norm norm 1/19-1/20 CONFIG

Hope it helps

Hello,

the port needs to be shut down before you can remove it from the MLT.

Shutdown Port: Enter interface configuration mode and use the shutdown port 1/7 command.

Remove Member: Then run no mlt 3 member 1/7.

No MLT 3 Issue: Ports re-join because their LACP configuration remains on the interface. To fully remove the configuration, you must first remove the members, then use no lacp on the interfaces, and then run no mlt 3.

Best Regard,

Jack

Hi Jack,

Thank you for your response.

Tried this as well but it is still giving me the same error:

(config)#int gigabitEthernet 1/7
(config-if)#shutdown
(config-if)#no mlt 3 mem
(config-if)#no mlt 3 member 1/7

Error: MLT remove ports fail

(config)#no mlt 3 member 1/7

Error: MLT remove ports fail

Is there other configuration I should remove first to succesfully remove the port on the mlt member?

Thank you
