Trunking

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for

exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation

Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to

which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its

transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner. Link aggregation lets you

group up to eight consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection. This feature can

expand bandwidth to a device on the network. LACP operation requires full-duplex

mode, more detail information refers to IEEE 802.3ad.

Aggregator setting

1. System Priority: a value used to identify the active LACP. The switch with the lowest

value has the highest priority and is selected as the active LACP.

Group ID:

There are seven trunk groups to provided configure. Choose the "

Group

" and click

Select

3. LACP: If enable, the group is LACP static trunk group. If disable, the group is local

static trunk group. All ports support LACP dynamic trunking group. If connecting to

the device that also supports LACP, the LACP dynamic trunking group will be created

automatically.

4. Work ports: allow max four ports can be aggregated at the same time. If LACP static

trunk group, the exceed ports are standby and able to aggregate if work ports fail. If it

is local static trunk group, the number must be as same as the group member ports.

5. Select the ports to join the trunk group. Allow max four ports can be aggregated at the

same time. Click

<<Add

button to add the port. To remove unwanted ports, select

the port and click

Remove>>

button.

6. If LACP enable, you can configure LACP Active/Passive status in each ports on State

Activity page.
