All the ports in the trunk will have the same speed, duplex mode, and flow
control as defined by the trunk. Once the trunk is deleted, the ports will no
longer be a member of that trunk but will retain the speed, duplex mode, and
flow control setting of that trunk.
Field Attributes
• Trunk – Indicates trunk identification.
• Speed/Duplex – Allows you to manually set the port speed and
duplex mode for all ports in the trunk.
• Flow Control – Allows flow control to be enabled or disabled. When
the box is checked, flow control is enabled.
• Member Ports – Indicates which ports belong to the trunk.
Web – Click Trunks, Configuration.
LACP Settings
The switch supports both static trunking and dynamic Link Aggregation
Control Protocol (LACP), which is specified in IEEE 802.3ad. Static trunks
have to be manually configured at both ends of the link, on the other hand,
LACP configured ports can automatically negotiate a trunked link with LACP-
configured ports on another device. You can configure any number of ports
on the switch as LACP, as long as they are not already configured as part of a
static trunk. If ports on another device are also configured as LACP, the switch
and the other device will negotiate a trunk link between them. If an LACP
trunk consists of more than eight ports, all other ports will be placed in a
standby mode. Should one link in the trunk fail, one of the standby ports will
automatically be activated to replace it.
You can use the LACP Setting page to configure LACP for each port.
