State Activity
Having configured the LACP aggregator on the
Aggregator Setting
tab, you may want to change
the state activity for the members of the LACP trunk group. You can select/unselect the checkbox
beside the state label. If you remove the select mark of the corresponding port and select the
Apply
button, the port state activity will change to Passive.
»
Active
: The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.
»
Passive
: The port does not actively send LACP protocol packets. It responds only if it receives
LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.
Note 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.
