7. To change the default name of the LAG, in the LAG Name field, enter the name to
be assigned to the LAG.
By default, the names are ch1, ch2, ch3, and so on. You can enter a name of up to
15 characters.
8. To enter a description for the LAG, in the LAG Description field, enter a description
of up to 64 characters.
9. 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.
10. From the Link Trap menu, select to enable or disable the transmission of a trap when
the LAG link status changes.
The default is Enable, which allows a trap to be sent.
11. From the STP Mode menu, select to enable or disable the Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP) administrative mode for the LAG.
Enable is the default.
12. 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.
13. From the Hash Mode menu, select the load-balancing mode for the LAG:
• Src MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Source MAC address, VLAN, EtherType,
and incoming port associated with the packet.
• Dest MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Destination MAC address, VLAN,
EtherType, and incoming port associated with the packet. This is the default mode.
• Src/Dest MAC, VLAN, EType, incoming port: Source and destination MAC
addresses, VLAN, EtherType, and incoming port associated with the packet.
• Src IP and Src TCP/UDP Port fields: Source IP address and source TCP/UDP port
fields of the packet.
• Dest IP and Dest TCP/UDP Port fields: Destination IP address and destination
TCP/UDP port fields of the packet.
• Src/Dest IP and TCP/UDP Port fields: Source and destination IP addresses and
source and destination TCP/UDP port fields of the packet.
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.
