3.4.2.2 LACP Port Settings
LACP (Link Aggregation Control Protocol) trunks are similar to static port trunks but they are more
flexible because LACP is compliant with the IEEE 802.3ad standard. Hence, it is interoperable with
equipment from other vendors that also comply with the standard.
This page allows the user to enable LACP functions to group ports together to form single virtual links
and change associated settings, thereby increasing the bandwidth between the switch and other
LACP-compatible devices.
The following parameters can be configured for each port:
