Ethernet port 1 and port 2 can be used as independent Ethernet ports. • Enable (LACP-IEEE 803.3ad). The router communicates with the device connected to Ethernet port 1 and port 2 on the router, and checks to see if Ethernet port aggregation is supported on the device. If Ethernet port aggregation is supported, the router automatically trunks Ethernet port 1 and port 2. If not, Ethernet port 1 and port 2 work as independent Ethernet ports. This option is selected by default. We recommend that you select this option unless your NAS or switch can support static LAG only. Network Settings 69
