◆ To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you enable LACP before
connecting the ports, and also disconnect the ports before disabling
LACP.
◆ If the target switch has also enabled LACP on the connected ports, the
trunk will be activated automatically.
◆ A trunk formed with another switch using LACP will automatically be
assigned the next available trunk ID.
◆ If more than eight ports attached to the same target switch have LACP
enabled, the additional ports will be placed in standby mode, and will
only be enabled if one of the active links fails.
