responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.

A link having two passive LACP nodes will not perform dynamic LACP trunk since both ports are waiting for an LACP protocol packet from the opposite device.

VLAN allows for end stations to be grouped together even if they are not located on the same network switch. Network reconfiguration can be realized through software instead of physically relocating devices.

HME-421E/423E supports both port-based VLAN and IEEE 802.1Q (Tag-based) VLAN. HME-421E/423E VLAN operation mode if Disable by default.

4-6.11.1 Port-based VLAN

A port-based VLAN is formed by a group of switch ports which are not necessary located on the same switch. A four-byte field in the header is used to identify the VLAN. Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. All unselected ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled, the VLAN-tagging will be ignored.

In order for an end station to send packets to different VLAN groups, it has to be either capable of tagging packets it sends with VLAN tags, or attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of classifying and
