• You must connect all ports point-to-point to the same Ethernet switch and
configure the ports for LACP trunking.
• LACP only works on full-duplex links.

duplex mode and flow control settings.
Configure trunk groups or LACP before you connect the Ethernet switch to avoid
causing network topology loops.

16.3 Static Trunking Example
This example shows you how to create a static port trunk group for ports 2-5.

Make your physical connections - make sure that the ports that you want to
belong to the trunk group are connected to the same destination. The following
figure shows ports 2-5 on switch A connected to switch B.
