LACP Configuration
Enabling LACP functionality
The LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) handles the selection of the active ports of a
link aggregation. You can enable LACP for every link aggregation.
Figure 4-55 LACP Configuration
Enable LACP
Here, you enable LACP.
If LACP is enabled, the ports send corresponding LACP frames. If the partner device returns
LACP frames, the ports of the link aggregation are enabled.
If LACP is disabled, the ports of the link aggregation are enabled immediately.
