Configuring the LAN2 Port

Static Link
Aggregation
(LAG)
The access point has two Ethernet ports, labeled LAN1 and LAN2. You
use the ports to connect the wireless access point to your wired network.
Here are their basic properties:
The default setting for LAN1 port is enabled. You cannot disable it.

LAN1 and LAN2 ports support PoE+.

The default setting for LAN2 port is disabled.

LAN1 and LAN2 ports can be combined into a Static Link

Aggregation (LAG) to double the bandwidth between the access
point and the wired network.
LAN2 can be configured as a separate Ethernet port for another

network device. This is referred to as the Cascade mode.
You can double the bandwidth between the access point and your wired
network by combining LAN1 and LAN2 ports into a static LAG. A static
LAG functions as a single logical link between the access point and
another network device, such as an Ethernet switch or router. A static LAG
also provides link redundancy. If one link goes down, the access point
maintains connectivity to the wired network over the remaining link. Refer
to Figure 22.
Figure 22. LAN1 and LAN2 Ports in a Static LAG
Here are guidelines to using LAN1 and LAN2 ports as a static LAG:
You have to connect the ports to the same network device, such as

an Ethernet switch or router, or virtual stacking devices. Do not
connect the LAN ports to different network devices.
The network device has to support static LAGs.

You have to configure the two ports on the network device as a

static LAG.
You activate the static LAG for LAN1 and LAN2 ports with the on-board
web browser management interface, or with the AWC plug-in Vista
Manager EX. You must use Vista Manager EX version 3.9.0 or later for the
TQ6000 GEN2 access point.
