Managed Switch, the screen in Figure 4-40 appears.
Figure 4-40: Port Trunk-Aggregator setting interface (two ports are added to the left field
with LACP enabled)
This page includes the following fields:
OBJECT
System Priority
Group ID
LACP
Work ports
86
DESCRIPTION
A value which is used to identify the active LACP. The Managed
Switch with the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected
as the active LACP peer of the trunk group.
There are 13 trunk groups to be selected. Assign the "Group ID" to
the trunk group.
Enabled, the trunk group is using LACP. A port which joins an
LACP trunk group has to make an agreement with its member
ports first.
Disabled, the trunk group is a static trunk group. The advantage
of having the LACP disabled is that a port joins the trunk group
without any handshaking with its member ports; but member
ports won't know that they should be aggregated together to
form a logic trunk group.
This column field allows the user to type in the total number of
active port up to four. With LACP static trunk group, e.g. you assign
four ports to be the members of a trunk group whose work ports
column field is set as two; the exceed ports are standby/redundant
ports and can be aggregated if working ports fail. If it is a static trunk
group (non-LACP), the number of work ports must equal the total
number of group member ports.
