Chapter 6: Static Port Trunking

A check in a box indicates the port is a member of the trunk. No check means the port is not a member. A port trunk can contain up to eight ports.

Active - The specific aggregator will broadcast and respond to LACPDU (LACP Data Unit) packets. This setting enables the LACP feature for the trunk.

Passive - The specific aggregator will not broadcast LACPDU packets, but it will respond to them. This setting disables the LACP feature for the trunk.

Manual - Enables static port trunking and disables the LACP feature for the trunk.

Disable - Disables the static port trunk and disables the LACP feature for the trunk.

6.Click Apply.

7.If you did not select the trunk mode Disabled, the trunk is now operational on the switch.
