Parameter description:
 Port :
The switch port number.
 LACP Enabled
Controls whether LACP is enabled on this switch port. LACP will form an aggregation when
2 or more ports are connected to the same partner.
 Key
The Key value incurred by the port, range 1-65535 . The Auto setting will set the key as
appropriate by the physical link speed, 10Mb = 1, 100Mb = 2, 1Gb = 3. Using the Specific
setting, a user-defined value can be entered. Ports with the same Key value can participate
in the same aggregation group, while ports with different keys cannot.
 Role
The Role shows the LACP activity status. The Active will transmit LACP packets each second,
while Passive will wait for a LACP packet from a partner (speak if spoken to).
 Timeout
The Timeout controls the period between BPDU transmissions. Fast will transmit LACP
packets each second, while Slow will wait for 30 seconds before sending a LACP packet.
 Prio
The Prio controls the priority of the port. If the LACP partner wants to form a larger group
than is supported by this device then this parameter will control which ports will be active
and which ports will be in a backup role. Lower number means greater priority.
