that these settings only affect the administrative state of the partner and
do not take effect until the next time an aggregate link is formed with
this device.

Value
This menu sets the local side of an aggregate link; that is, the
ports on this switch.
Port number. (Range: 1 to 12 for 12-port switches, and 1 to 24 for
24-port switches.)
Enter the LACP system priority used to determine Link Aggregation
Group (LAG) membership and to identify this device to other
switches during LAG negotiations.
Ports must be configured with the same system priority to join the
same LAG. System priority is combined with the MAC address to
form the LAG identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific
LAG during LACP negotiations with other systems. (Range: 0 to
65 535. Default: 32 768)
Enter the same value for ports that belong to the same LAG.
(Range: 0 to 65535. Default: 1)
Enter the value to determine the LACP port priority backup link, if
a link goes down. (Range: 0 to 65 535. Default: 32 768)
This menu sets the remote side of an aggregate link; that is, the
ports on the attached device. The command attributes are the
same as those used for the port actor. However, configuring LACP
settings for the partner only applies to its administrative state,
not its operational state, and only takes effect the next time an
aggregate link is established with the partner.
