To enable an interface to operate in a static group, use command 'channel-group {group}
mode on' in the configuration mode of the interface.

LACP link aggregation protocol
Key function of the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is to aggregate multiple physical links
into a single link. Link aggregation increases link bandwidth and adds resiliency. LACP allows for traffic
transmission via aggregated links according to the defined priorities.
To enable an interface to operate via LACP, use command ‘channel-group {group} mode
auto’ in the configuration mode of the interface.
