Chapter 6: IP Address Assignment

-Aggregation with non-IEEE 802.3 MAC link

-Operating in half-duplex mode

-Aggregate the ports with different data rate

Link Aggregation Algorithm: The switch supports two types of link aggregation algorithm, MAC source and MAC source/ MAC destination.

Source MAC Address: Use to enable source MAC address for Aggregate Mode.

Source/ Destination MAC Address: Use to enable destination MAC address for Aggregate Mode.

Figure 4-29. Trunking configuration screen for LACP.

Member: Choose the trunking ports you want to enable in the link group 1 and 2.

State: Enable or disable the link group state.

Type: Choose the link aggregation type, static or LACP.

LACP: A port use LACP as its trunk method to get aggregated with other ports also using LACP.

Static: A port use Static Trunk as its trunk method to get aggregated with other ports also using Static Trunk.

Operation Key: This is the value same as system priority if you choose LACP for link aggregation.

Time Out: Choose short or long time out.

Activity: When you aggregate link two switches, one of them should be configured as active.
