Enabling LACP on Selected Ports
Command Usage
• To avoid creating a loop in the network, be
sure you enable LACP before connecting
the ports, and also disconnect the ports
before disabling LACP.
• If the target switch has also enabled LACP
on the connected ports, the trunk will be
activated automatically.
• A trunk formed with another switch using
LACP will automatically be assigned the
next available trunk ID.
• If more than four ports attached to the same target switch have LACP
enabled, the additional ports will be placed in standby mode, and will only
be enabled if one of the active links fails.
• All ports on both ends of an LACP trunk must be configured for full
duplex, either by forced mode or auto-negotiation.
• Trunks dynamically established through LACP will also be shown in the
Member List on the Trunk Membership menu (see page 3-121).
