APC SCSI-SATA II manual Node

1.Multi-homed: The two LAN ports are connected to two different networks. Multi-homed is default.

2.Trunking: Trunking links 2 LAN ports together to be a single link. Trunking could multiply the bandwidth. They will be aggregated to one

IP. If clicking the blue square button “” at “No. 1” row, the IP setting will be set to default value after setting trunking, and vice versa. For detailed setup steps, please refer to Appendix E: Trunking/LACP setup instructions.

3.LACP: Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) could balance the bandwidth. IP setting concept is the same as trunking. For detailed setup steps, please refer to Appendix E: Trunking/LACP setup instructions.

Caution

Each of gigabit LAN ports must have IP address in different subnet for backplane solutions, P120C-8 and P120C-16.
