The user may set the following parameters:

Parameter

Description

Unit

Choose the switch in the switch stack to be configured by using the pull-down menu.

From/To

A consecutive group of ports may be configured starting with the selected port.

Mode

Active – Active LACP ports are capable of processing and sending LACP control frames.This allows LACP

compliant devices to negotiate the aggregated link so the group may be changed dynamically as needs require.

In order to utilize the ability to change an aggregated port group, that is, to add or subtract ports from the

group, at least one of the participating devices must designate LACP ports as active. Both devices must support

LACP.
Passive – LACP ports that are designated as passive cannot initially send LACP control frames. In order to allow

the linked port group to negotiate adjustments and make changes dynamically, one end of the connection must

have "active" LACP ports (see above).

After setting the previous parameters, click Apply to allow your changes to be implemented.The LACP Port Table shows which ports are active and/or

passive.
