Description
Select an ID number for the group, between 1 and 32.
This pull-down menu allows you to select between Static and LACP (Link Aggregation Control
Protocol). LACP allows for the automatic detection of links in a Port Trunking Group.
Trunk groups can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled. This is used to turn a port
trunking group on or off. This is useful for diagnostics, to quickly isolate a bandwidth intensive
network device or to have an absolute backup aggregation group that is not under automatic
control.
Choose the Master Port for the trunk group using the pull-down menu.
Select the unit you wish to configure.
Choose the members of a trunked group. Up to eight ports per group can be assigned to a
group.
A trunking group must designate one port to allow transmission of broadcasts and unknown
unicasts.
