Operating Systems Solaris How can I test link aggregation? Post 303034075 by MadeInGermany on Wednesday 17th of April 2019 01:59:10 PM

Code:
dladm show-aggr

Check correct "speed" and "duplex mode" and there should be "link up".

If you use LACP (I think you must use LACP - everything else I have seen being faulty), then check with
Code:
dladm show-aggr -L

The output of a working LACP looks like this:
Code:
    device    activity timeout aggregatable sync  coll dist defaulted expired
    xyz0      passive  long    yes          yes   yes  yes  no        no     
    xyz1      passive  long    yes          yes   yes  yes  no        no

In Solaris 10 the timer defaults to "short", you should change it to "long" unless told otherwise by the vendor of the connected LAN switches.
"passive" or "active" does not mattter (the connected LAN switch must be "active").
"policy" does not matter.
The "sync" "coll" and "dist" must all be "yes" (otherwise it does not cooperate with the connected LAN switch).

That's all theory.
The practise is: pull a cable and check connectivity.

STRUCT 
TID_AMPDU_TX(9) Internals STRUCT TID_AMPDU_TX(9) NAME
struct_tid_ampdu_tx - TID aggregation information (Tx). SYNOPSIS
struct tid_ampdu_tx { struct rcu_head rcu_head; struct timer_list session_timer; struct timer_list addba_resp_timer; struct sk_buff_head pending; unsigned long state; unsigned long last_tx; u16 timeout; u8 dialog_token; u8 stop_initiator; bool tx_stop; u8 buf_size; u16 failed_bar_ssn; bool bar_pending; }; MEMBERS
rcu_head rcu head for freeing structure session_timer check if we keep Tx-ing on the TID (by timeout value) addba_resp_timer timer for peer's response to addba request pending pending frames queue -- use sta's spinlock to protect state session state (see above) last_tx jiffies of last tx activity timeout session timeout value to be filled in ADDBA requests dialog_token dialog token for aggregation session stop_initiator initiator of a session stop tx_stop TX DelBA frame when stopping buf_size reorder buffer size at receiver failed_bar_ssn ssn of the last failed BAR tx attempt bar_pending BAR needs to be re-sent DESCRIPTION
This structure's lifetime is managed by RCU, assignments to the array holding it must hold the aggregation mutex. The TX path can access it under RCU lock-free if, and only if, the state has the flag HT_AGG_STATE_OPERATIONAL set. Otherwise, the TX path must also acquire the spinlock and re-check the state, see comments in the tx code touching it. AUTHOR
