24-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with Webview and PoE
Port Management Tab - LACP
Ports can be statically grouped into an aggregate link (that is, LAG) to increase the bandwidth of a network
connection or to ensure fault recovery. Or you can use the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) to
automatically negotiate a LAG link between the Switch and another network device. For static LAGs, the switches
have to comply with the Cisco EtherChannel standard. For dynamic LAGs, the switches have to comply with LACP.
This Switch supports up to eight LAGs. For example, a LAG consisting of two 1000 Mbps ports can support an
aggregate bandwidth of 4 Gbps when operating at full duplex.
To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you enable LACP before connecting the ports, and also
disconnect the ports before disabling LACP.
Global Setting
