    The Link Aggregation Guide for CX Switches will be very useful for this task. You can find the current version here: https://arubanetworking.hpe.com/techdocs/AOS-CX/10.15/PDF/link_aggregation.pdf

    Here is an example of a configuration that you can look at as a beginning point for your LACP based LAG. EDIT changed allowed vlans to 5-7.

    interface lag 100
      no shutdown
      vlan trunk native 5
      vlan trunk allowed 5-7
      lacp mode active
    interface 1/1/1
      no shutdown
      lag 100
    interface 1/1/2
      no shutdown
      lag 100

    If you want to pass vlan's 5 & 6 over the lag link I think you need to add 5 also to allowed list ("vlan trunk allowed 5-7")?

    Yes, totally agree. Vlan 5 is necessary to ad in the command:

    vlan trunk allowed 5-6.

    If you don't put vlan trunk native 5, you will have the default vlan, in this case vlan 1.

    let us know if this config will work as lacp for you.

    best regards

    Good catch. Thanks for picking that up. Edited my post to reflect this and included 5-7 in allowed VLANs.
