Description

This command enables new MAC address assignments to avoid an overlap between port MAC addresses and LAG MAC addresses.

In the current default assignments of MAC addresses to ports and LAGs, the MAC addresses that are allocated to the LAGs overlap with the MAC addresses of the physical ports; for example, the MAC address assigned by the system to LAG 1 is the same as the MAC address of port 27.

Use this command to change the MAC address assignment scheme to ensure that the LAG MAC addresses are not the same as the MAC addresses of the physical ports. The new scheme is referred to in the system as ‟v1.”

A reboot is required for this command to take effect.

WARNING:

The MAC address for some ports will change after this command is run. Ensure required changes are made to other service objects (for example, CFM up MEPs, and so on) that reference local MAC addresses, and to MAC addresses that reference remote peer devices, if required. Failure to make such changes could result in unpredictable behavior.

The no form of this command reverts to the default MAC address assignment scheme for ports and LAGs. The use of the default configuration is not recommended; it is available only to maintain the current mode of operation, if absolutely necessary.

Parameters

v1-enable

Mandatory keyword that forces the system to use the new scheme of MAC address assignment.
