LACP Setting

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is a computer networking term

and is part of IEEE specification 802.3ad that allows bundling several physical

ports together to form a single logical channel. LACP allows a network switch to

negotiate an automatic bundle by sending LACP packets to the peer. LACP is a

protocol implementation in OSI layer 2 which controls through which physical

links the traffic will be routed.

Protocol Enable: Tick the check box to enable LACP protocol of the port.

Key Value (auto | 1 - 255): The LACP key determines which ports

potentially can be aggregated together.
