Port Trunk – Aggregator Information interface

6.14.3 State Activity

Having set up the LACP aggregator on the tab of Aggregator Setting, you can configure

the state activity for the members of the LACP trunk group. You can select or cancel the

checkbox beside the state display. When you remove the select mark to the port and

select button, the port state activity will change to Passive.

 Active: The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.

 Passive: The port does not automatically send LACP protocol packets, and

responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.

[NOTE]

1. A link having either two active LACP nodes or one active node can

perform dynamic LACP trunk.

2. A link having two passive LACP nodes will not perform dynamic LACP

trunk because both ports are waiting for an LACP protocol packet from

the opposite device.
