LACP System Priority Indicates the global LACP priority value. The possible range is 1- 65535 and the default value is 1.

Port

Set the port number which need to timeout and the priority values are assigned.

LACP Port Priority

Where set the LACP priority value for the port and the field range is 1-65535.

LACP Timeout

Administrative LACP timeout. A short or long timeout value can be selected. Long is the default.

Admin Key

A channel will only be formed between ports having the same admin key, in other words, this only
applies to ports located on the same switch.

4.4 VLAN Configuration

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. It allows you to isolate network traffic so

only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically

equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plug

into the same switch physically.

The Switch supports IEEE 802.1Q (tagged-based) and GVRP Dynamic VLAN setting in web management page. In the default

configuration, VLAN support is “802.1Q”.

IEEE 802.1Q VLANs

IEEE 802.1Q (tagged) VLAN are implemented on the Switch. 802.1Q VLAN require tagging, which enables them to span the

entire network (assuming all switches on the network are IEEE 802.1Q-compliant).

VLAN allow a network to be segmented in order to reduce the size of broadcast domains. All packets entering a VLAN will only

be forwarded to the stations (over IEEE 802.1Q enabled switches) that are members of that VLAN, and this includes broadcast,

multicast and unicast packets from unknown sources.

VLAN can also provide a level of security to your network. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN will only deliver packets between stations that are

members of the VLAN. Any port can be configured as either tagging or untagging. The untagging feature of IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

allows VLAN to work with legacy switches that don't recognize VLAN tags in packet headers. The tagging feature allows VLAN

to span multiple 802.1Q-compliant switches through a single physical connection and allows Spanning Tree to be enabled on all

ports and work normally.
