LACP

Ports can be statically grouped into an aggregate link (i.e., 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 this 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 four 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.

Set Port Actor – This menu sets the local side of an aggregate link; that is, the ports on this switch.

Set Port Partner – This menu sets the remote side of an aggregate link; that is, the ports on the attached device. The command attributes have the same meaning 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 will only take effect the next time an aggregate link is established with the partner.

Set the System Priority, Admin Key, and Port Priority for the Port Actor. You can optionally configure these settings for the Port Partner. (Be aware that these settings only affect the administrative state of the partner, and will not take effect until the next time an aggregate link is formed with this device.) After you have completed setting the port LACP parameters, click submit.

To assign ports to the member list, click LACP Membership.

LACP Membership

Select any of the switch ports from the drop-down menu and click Add. After you have completed adding ports to the member list, click submit.

SRW224P specifications

The Linksys SRW224P is a versatile and efficient managed switch that caters to the needs of small to medium-sized businesses. This Layer 2 switch stands out with its robust functionality and user-friendly design, making it an ideal choice for networking professionals looking to enhance their network infrastructure.

One of the standout features of the SRW224P is its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which provide high-speed connectivity for various devices across the network. This is particularly beneficial in environments with bandwidth-hungry applications, such as data transfers, video conferencing, and online collaboration tools. Additionally, the switch comes with 2 dual-personality ports that can be used as either Gigabit Ethernet or SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ports, allowing for flexible and scalable network setups.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability is another significant aspect of the SRW224P. With a total PoE output of up to 370 watts, the switch can power devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points directly through the Ethernet cable, simplifying the installation process and reducing cable clutter. This feature is particularly advantageous for organizations seeking to deploy network devices in areas where power outlets are limited.

The SRW224P also boasts advanced management features, including VLAN support for segmenting network traffic, Quality of Service (QoS) for prioritizing critical applications, and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) for redundant network paths. These capabilities enhance network performance and reliability, ensuring that users experience minimal downtime and efficient data flow.

Security is a top priority with the SRW224P, which includes features such as port security, access control lists (ACLs), and DHCP snooping. These measures help protect the network from unauthorized access and potential attacks, safeguarding sensitive information and maintaining operational integrity.
