LACP Port Settings

Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a method to control the bundling of
several physical ports together to form a single logical channel. By configuring the LACP
function, the switch can negotiate an automatic bundling of links by sending LACP packets
to the peer device (also implementing LACP).
