# VPP Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) implementation    {#lacp_plugin_doc}

This document is to describe the usage of VPP LACP implementation.

## LACP

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is an 802.3ad standard which
provides a protocol for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a
link to allow their protocol instances to reach agreement on the Link Aggregation
Group to which the link belongs and enable transmission and reception for the
higher layer. Multiple links may be bundled to the same Aggregation Group to form
a high bandwidth transmission medium and create a fault-tolerant link.


### Configuration

1. Create the bond interface
create bond mode lacp [hw-addr <mac-address>] [load-balance { l2 | l23 | l34 }]

2. Enslave the physical interface to the bond
enslave interface <interface> to <bond-interface-name> [passive] [long-timeout]"

3. Delete the bond interface
delete bond {<interface> | sw_if_index <sw_idx>}

4. Detach the slave interface from the bond
detach interface <interface>

### Configuration example

```
create bond mode lacp
set interface state BondEthernet0 up
enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet7/0/0 to BondEthernet1
enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet7/0/1 to BondEthernet1
enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/0 to BondEthernet1
enslave interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/1 to BondEthernet1
```

```
detach interface TenGigabitEthernet5/0/1
```

```
delete bond BondEthernet0
```

### Operational data

```
show lacp [<interface>] [details]
```
