Port Trunk – Aggregator Information interface
State Activity
When you had setup the LACP aggregator, you can configure port state activity. You can
mark or un-mark the port. When you mark the port and click Apply button the port state
activity will change to Active. Opposite is Passive.
Active: The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.
Passive: The port does not automatically send LACP protocol packets, and
responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.
Note 1. A link having either two active LACP ports or one active port can
perform dynamic LACP trunk.
2. A link has two passive LACP ports will not perform dynamic LACP
trunk because both ports are waiting for an LACP protocol packet from
the opposite device.
3. If you are active LACP’s actor, after you have selected trunk port, the
active status will be created automatically.
