+min_links
+
+ Specifies the minimum number of links that must be active before
+ asserting carrier. It is similar to the Cisco EtherChannel min-links
+ feature. This allows setting the minimum number of member ports that

+ The default value is 0. This will cause carrier to be asserted (for
+ 802.3ad mode) whenever there is an active aggregator, regardless of the

+ aggregator cannot be active without at least one available link,
+ setting this option to 0 or to 1 has the exact same effect.
