2.1.9 LACP

Different from the static port trunking, LACP provides another way to dynamically aggregate port to a group

(trunk) according to IEEE 802.3ad. Once the protocol is enabled, the ports to be trunked by LACP will be

executed automatically after press “Apply”. A default diagram is shown below.

Two parameters need to be set per port basis in this webpage:

„

Protocol Enabled – to enable/disable LACP protocol for a port.

„

Key Value – a number (1 ~ 255) to identify the LACP group for a port. All member ports in a LACP

group have the same key values. Key number will be automatically generated if “auto” value is set

.

Choose and click the trunk ports you want to group. For example, select port 5, 6, 7 and port 8 to group into a

LACP group with key value “auto” for all ports, then press “Apply” to activate the setting. The figure is shown

below
