NETGEAR M4350-24F4V 24-Port 10G SFP+ Managed AV Network Switch - Manual (Page 361)

8. From the Admin Mode menu, select to enable or disable the LAG.
When the LAG is disabled, no traffic flows and LACPDUs are dropped, but the links
that form the LAG are not released. The default is Enable.
9. From the Hash Mode menu, select the hash mode (that is, the load-balancing mode)
for the LAG:
• 1 Src MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Source MAC address, VLAN,
EtherType, and incoming port associated with the packet.
• 2 Dest MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Destination MAC address, VLAN,
EtherType, and incoming port associated with the packet. This is the default
mode.
• 3 Src/Dest MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Source and destination MAC
addresses, VLAN, EtherType, and incoming port associated with the packet.
• 4 Src IP and Src TCP/UDP Port fields: Source IP address and source TCP/UDP
port fields of the packet.
• 5 Dest IP and Dest TCP/UDP Port fields: Destination IP address and destination
TCP/UDP port fields of the packet.
• 6 Src/Dest IP and TCP/UDP Port fields: Source and destination IP addresses
and source and destination TCP/UDP port fields of the packet.
• 7 Enhanced hashing mode: Features MODULO-N operation based on the
number of ports in the LAG, non-unicast traffic and unicast traffic hashing using
a common hash algorithm, excellent load balancing performance, and packet
attributes selection based on the packet type
- For L2 packets, the source MAC address and destination MAC address are
used for hash computation.
- For L3 packets, the source IP address, destination IP address, and TCP or UDP
ports are used for hash computation.
NOTE: The switch balances traffic on a LAG by selecting one of the links
in the channel over which packets must be transmitted. The switch selects
the link by creating a binary pattern from selected fields in a packet and
associating that pattern with a particular link. The hash mode determines
which fields in a packet the switch selects.
10. From the STP Mode menu, select to enable or disable the Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP) administrative mode for the LAG.
The default is Enable.
11. From the Static Mode menu, select to enable or disable the LAG as a static LAG.
When the static mode is enabled, the LAG does not transmit or process incoming
LACPDUs. That is, a LAG member port does not transmit LACPDUs, and LACPDUs
that it receives are dropped. The default is Disable.
