Link Aggregation Settings
LACP
LACP or Link Aggregation Control Protocol is based on the priority, and the user can enable a system priority or even specify
the the priority for each port individually.
Link Aggregation – LACP
LACP
MAC Address Table
The MAC address table records the correspondence between the MAC addresses of other devices learned by the switch and
the interfaces, as well as information such as the VLANs to which the interfaces belong. When forwarding a packet, the device
queries the MAC address table according to the destination MAC address of the packet. If the MAC address table contains an
entry corresponding to the destination MAC address of the packet, it directly forwards the packet through the outbound
interface in the entry. If the MAC address table does not contain an entry corresponding to the destination MAC address of
the packet , the device will use broadcast mode to forward the packet on all interfaces in the VLAN to which it belongs except
the receiving interface.
The entries in the MAC address table are divided into Dynamic Address, Static MAC Address, Black hole Address and Port
Security Address.
Dynamic Address
Speed
Set the rate of the interface, the options are {Auto, 10Mbps, 100Mbps, 1000Mbps}.
The default is auto-negotiation.
Note: When set to Auto, the rate of the interface is automatically negotiated between the interface and the peer port
.
Flow Control
Set the flow control on the interface, the options are { Disabled, Enabled, Auto}. The default is Disabled
After enabling it, if the local device is congested, it will send a message to the peer device to notify the peer device
to temporarily stop sending packets, after receiving the message, the peer device will temporarily stop sending
packets to the local and vice versa. Thus, the occurrence of packet loss is avoided.
System Priority Set the system priority of LACP, the value range is an integer from 1-65535, the default is 32768.
Edit LACP
Port: Select the switch LAG interface to be configured
Port Priority:Set the LACP protocol priority of the port , the value range is an integer from 1 to 65535 , the default
is 1.
Note: The smaller the priority value of the port , the higher the LACP priority of the port.
Timeout: Set the timeout time for receiving LACP packets, the options are { Short, Long} , the default is Short.
● Short mode: the default timeout period for receiving LACP protocol packets is 3 seconds.
● Long mode: the default timeout period for receiving LACP protocol packets is 90 seconds .
