Link Aggregation Groups

Link aggregation groups (LAGs), which are also known as port-channels, allow you to

combine multiple full-duplex Ethernet links into a single logical link. Network devices treat the

aggregation as if it were a single link, which increases fault tolerance and provides load

sharing. You assign the LAG VLAN membership after you create a LAG. The LAG by default

becomes a member of the management VLAN.

A LAG interface can be either static or dynamic, but not both. All members of a LAG must

participate in the same protocols. A static port-channel interface does not require a partner

system to be able to aggregate its member ports.

Static LAGs are supported. When a port is added to a LAG as a static member, it neither

transmits nor receives LAGPDUs. The GS752TXS Smart Switch supports eight LAGs.

From the LAGs link, you can access the following pages:

• LAG Configuration on page 92

• LAG Membership on page 94

• LACP Configuration on page 95

• LACP Port Configuration on page 96

LAG Configuration

Use the LAG (Port Channel) Configuration page to group one or more full-duplex Ethernet

links to be aggregated together to form a link aggregation group, which is also known as a

port-channel. The switch treats the LAG as if it were a single link.

To access the LAG Configuration page, click Switching LAG  Basic  LAG Configuration.
