NETGEAR 24-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Pro Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports Model GS724TPv2 6. Select one or more interfaces by taking one of the following actions: • To configure a single interface, select the check box associated with the interface, or type the interface number in the Go To Interface field and click the Go button. • To configure multiple interfaces with the same settings, select the check box associated with each interface. • To configure all interfaces with the same settings, select the check box in the heading row. 7. In the LACP Priority field, specify the LACP priority value for the selected interfaces. This value specifies the device's link aggregation priority relative to the devices at the other ends of the links on which link aggregation is enabled. A higher value indicates a lower priority. The range is 0 to 255. The default is 128. 8. In the Timeout field, configure the administrative LACP time-out value: • Long. Specifies a long time-out value. • Short. Specifies a short time-out value. 9. Click the Apply button. The updated configuration is sent to the switch. Configuration changes take effect immediately. Configure VLANs Adding virtual LAN (VLAN) support to a Layer 2 switch offers some of the benefits of both bridging and routing. Like a bridge, a VLAN switch forwards traffic based on the Layer 2 header, which is fast, and like a router, it partitions the network into logical segments, which provides better administration, security, and management of multicast traffic. By default, all ports on the switch are in the same broadcast domain. VLANs electronically separate ports on the same switch into separate broadcast domains so that broadcast packets are not sent to all the ports on a single switch. When you use a VLAN, users can be grouped by logical function instead of physical location. Configure Switching 100
