The following describes the nonconfigurable information that is displayed.
Manage Link Aggregation Groups
Link aggregation groups (LAGs), which are also known as port-channels, allow you to
combine multiple full-duplex Ethernet links into a single logical link. Network devices treat the
aggregation as if it were a single link, which increases fault tolerance and provides load
sharing. You assign the LAG VLAN membership after you create a LAG. The LAG by default
becomes a member of the management VLAN.
A LAG interface can be either static or dynamic, but not both. All members of a LAG must
participate in the same protocols.
A static port-channel interface does not require a partner
system to be able to aggregate its member ports.
Static LAGs are supported. When a port is added to a LAG as a static member, it neither
transmits nor receives LACPDUs.
Configure LAG Settings
You can group one or more full-duplex Ethernet links to be aggregated together to form a link
aggregation group, which is also known as a port-channel. The switch treats the LAG as if it
were a single link.
To configure LAG settings:
1. Launch a web browser
.
2. In the address field of your web browser
, enter the IP address of the switch.
