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.
