Switch Conf. (Configuration) Tab - LAG Conf. (Configuration)

The Switch supports up to eight Link Aggregated Groups (LAGs), which maximize port usage by linking a group of
ports together to form a single group. LAGs multiply the bandwidth between the network devices, increase port
flexibility, and provide link redundancy. The Switch’s LAGs are listed on the LA Configuration screen, which also
allows you to modify them.

LAG Port. This displays the LAG number.

Name. This is the port name.

Link State. Displayed here is the status of the link.

Member. This shows the ports configured to the LAG.

If you want to delete a current LAG, then select the LAG’s X icon.

To modify a LAG, click the LAG’s Edit icon, which resembles a pencil. On the new screen that appears, you can
modify the LAG for each of the Switch’s ports. Where many ports are present, you can scroll to the right on the
screen to view the settings for further ports.

LAG Port. This displays the LAG number.

LAG Name. Complete the LAG Name field.

Port. Select the ports you want to include in this LAG.

LACP. Select the ports for which you want to enable the use of Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).

Activity. If checked, indicates that the port is an active member of the LAG. If not checked, indicates that it is a
LAG LAP candidate, but is not an active LAG member.

Click the Submit button to save your changes.
