allows a network switch to negotiate an automatic bundle by sending LACP packets to
the peer. The advantages of LACP are that it increases bandwidth usage and it
automatically performs a failover when the link status fails on a port.

Set VLAN ID:
VLAN is a logical grouping mechanism implemented on switch device.
VLANs are collections of switching ports that comprise a single broadcast domain. It allows
network traffic to flow more efficiently within these logical subgroups. Please consult your
network switch user manual for VLAN setting instructions. Most of the work is done at the
switch part. All you need to do is to make sure that your VLAN ID of iSCSI port matches that
of switch port. If your network environment supports VLAN, you can use this function to
change the configurations. Fill in VLAN ID and Priority settings to enable VLAN.
。
VLAN ID:
VLAN ID is a 12-bit number. Its range is from 2 to 4094, while 0, 1, and 4095
are reserved for special purposes.
。
Priority:
The PCP (Priority Code Point) is a 3-bit number and reserved for QoS. The
definition complies with IEEE 802.1p protocol, ranging from 0 to 7, with 0 as the
default value. In normal cases, you don't need to set this value. Using the default will
do just fine.
TIP:
If iSCSI ports are assigned with VLAN ID before creating aggregation takes place,
aggregation will remove VLAN ID. You need to repeat the steps to set VLAN ID
for the aggregation group.
