The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is a computer networking term and is part
of IEEE specification 802.3ad that allows bundling several physical ports together to
form a single logical channel. LACP allows a network switch to negotiate an automatic
bundle by sending LACP packets to the peer. LACP is a protocol implementation in OSI
layer 2 which controls through which physical links the traffic will be routed.
Protocol Enabled:
Tick the check box to enable the LACP protocol of the port.
State Activity:
Pull down the selection item to set the activity state as active or
passive. When the state is set as active, the port sends LACP packets to its peer
actively. Otherwise, the port will not send LACP packets out unless it receives an
LACPDU from its peer.
Key Value (auto | 1 - 255):
The LACP key determines which ports potentially can
aggregate together.
