The page includes the following fields:
Object Description
• LACP System Priority Specifies the actor device's link aggregation priority relative to the devices at the
other ends of the links on which link aggregation is enabled. A higher value
indicates a lower priority.
• Port Number Display the port number. Click on the index number will enter port LACP
properties configuration screen.
• Priority Indicates actor port priority. The port priority determines the active and standby
links. When a group of ports is negotiating with a group of ports on another
device to establish a trunk group, the port with the highest priority becomes the
default active port. The other ports (with lower priorities) become standby ports in
the trunk group.
• Admin Key Indicates actor administration key for the port. The LACP administration key must
be set to the same value for ports that belong to the same LAG.
• LAG Group Indicates the LAG group ID if the port is the member of this LAG group.
•

4.3.3 LAG Group
Link Aggregated Groups optimize port usage by linking a group of ports together to form a single aggregated group. Link
aggregated groups multiply the bandwidth between the devices, increase port flexibility, and provide link redundancy.
