Defining LAG Management Link Aggregation optimizes port usage by linking a group of ports together to form a single LAG. Aggregating ports multiplies the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and provides link redundancy. The device supports both static LAGs and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) LAGs. LACP LAGs negotiate aggregating port links with other LACP ports located on a different device. If the other device ports are also LACP ports, the devices establish a LAG between them. Ensure the following: • All ports within a LAG must be the same media type. • A VLAN is not configured on the port. • The port is not assigned to a different LAG. • Auto-negotiation mode is not configured on the port.

LAG Management
Link Aggregation optimizes port usage by linking a group of ports together to form a single LAG.
Aggregating ports multiplies the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and
provides link redundancy.
The device supports both static LAGs and
Link Aggregation Control Protocol
(LACP) LAGs. LACP
LAGs negotiate aggregating port links with other LACP ports located on a different device. If the
other device ports are also LACP ports, the devices establish a LAG between them. Ensure the
following:
All ports within a LAG must be the same media type.
A VLAN is not configured on the port.
The port is not assigned to a different LAG.
Auto-negotiation mode is not configured on the port.
