For example, load balancing may distribute the incoming packets evenly to all servers, or redi-rect the packets to the next available server. Load Balancing is configured on the "LAG Configuration" on page 285 page. LAGs can be configured according to the following load balancing types: Layer 2, or Layer 2 and Layer 3 or Layer3. The LAG Configuration page contains fields for configuring parameters for configured LAGs. The device supports up to eight ports per LAG, and eight LAGs per system. For information about Link Aggregated Groups and assigning ports to LAGs, refer to Aggregating Ports. To open the LAG Configuration page, click Switch→ Ports→ LAG Configuration in the tree view. If port configuration is modified while the port is a LAG member, the configuration change is only effective after the port is removed from the LAG. 284 Configuring Device Information
