Defining LAG Membership
The LAG Membership page contains fields for assigning ports to LAGs. LAGs can include up to eight ports. When a port is added to a LAG, the port acquires the LAG’s properties. If the port cannot be configured with the LAG properties, a trap is generated and the port operates with its default settings.
The LAG Membership page contains fields for assigning ports to LAGs. To open the LAG Membership page, click Switch→ Link Aggregation→ LAG Membership in the tree view.

Multicast Forwarding Support
Multicast forwarding allows a single packet to be forwarded to multiple destinations. L2 Multicast service is based on L2 switch receiving a single packet addressed to a specific Multicast address. Multicast forwarding creates copies of the packet, and transmits the packets to the relevant ports.
