1.2 Link Aggregation Classification
Depending on different aggregation modes, the following three types of link
aggregation exist:
z
Manual aggregation
z
Static LACP aggregation
z
Dynamic LACP aggregation
1.2.1 Manual Aggregation Group
I. Introduction to manual aggregation group
A manual aggregation group is manually created. All its member ports are manually
added and can be manually removed (it inhibits the system from automatically
adding/removing ports to/from it). Each manual aggregation group must contain at least
one port. When a manual aggregation group contains only one port, you cannot remove
the port unless you remove the whole aggregation group.
LACP is disabled on the member ports of manual aggregation groups, and you cannot
enable LACP on ports in a manual aggregation group.
II. Port status in manual aggregation group
A port in a manual aggregation group can be in one of the two states: selected or
unselected. In a manual aggregation group, only the selected ports can forward user
service packets.
In a manual aggregation group, the system sets the ports to selected or unselected
state according to the following rules.
z
Among the ports in an aggregation group that are in up state, the system
determines the mater port with one of the following settings being the highest (in
descending order) as the master port: full duplex/high speed, full duplex/low speed,
half duplex/high speed, half duplex/low speed. The ports with their rate, duplex
mode and link type being the same as that of the master port are selected ports,
and the rest are unselected ports.
z
There is a limit on the number of selected ports in an aggregation group. Therefore,
if the number of the selected ports in an aggregation group exceeds the maximum
