Description:Give a description to the LAG for identification.‣ LAG TableMember Port:Select the port as the LAG member. Clearing all the ports ofthe LAG will delete this LAG.Tips:1. The LAG can be deleted by clearing its all member ports.2. A port can only be added to a LAG. If a port is the member of a LAG or is dynamicallyaggregated as the LACP member, the port number will be displayed in gray and can not beselected.5.2.3 LACP ConfigLACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) is defined in IEEE802.3ad and enables the dynamic linkaggregation and disaggregation by exchanging LACP packets with its partner. The switch candynamically group similarly configured ports into a single logical link, which will highly extend thebandwidth and flexibly balance the load.With the LACP feature enabled, the port will notify its partner of the aggregation ID (consist ofSystem Priority, system MAC address and the Admin Key). A dynamic aggregation group will onlybe formed between ports having the same aggregation ID. Up to fourteen aggregation groups canbe formed by the switch. If the amount of the configured aggregation groups exceeds themaximum number, the group with smaller System Priority takes the priority to be aggregated.Similarly, up to eight ports can be selected in an aggregation group. Therefore, the port also hasthe priority to be selected as the dynamic aggregation group member. The port with smaller PortPriority will be considered as the preferred one. If the two port priorities are equal; the port withsmaller port number is preferred.On this page, you can configure the LACP feature of the switch.Choose the menu Switching→LAG→LACP Config to load the following page.40
