The B.11.11.30 version of HP APA:

  • Supports Nortel's Split Multi-Link Trunking (SMLT) technology. A link aggregate can span over more than one switch, which removes switches as a single point of failure.

  • Enables the use of an optional HP_APA_LACP_TIMEOUT parameter in the /etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaconf file. Valid values are 0 (slow) and 1 (fast). The default value is 0.

  • Supports the creation of MANUAL mode link aggregates with ports that do not have the same group capability value. In addition, the ports are not required to have the same group capability value as the link aggregate

  • Supports the resetting of link aggregates and failover groups with the lanadmin command,

  • Enables you to programmatically obtain the multicast addresses enabled on a link aggregate or failover group.

See the HP Auto Port Aggregation (APA) Administrator's Guide (HP Part Number J4240-90039) for more information on the new features and how to use them.
