Smart Managed Pro Switches MS510TX and MS510TXPP
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 LACPDUs. The switch supports 8 LAGs.
From the Switching > LAG > Advanced menu, you can access pages that are described in
the following sections:
• Configure LAG Settings on page 90
• Configure LAG Membership on page 92
• Set the LACP System Priority on page 93
• Set the LACP Port Priority Settings on page 93
Configure LAG Settings
Use the LAG 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.
Only interfaces of the same type as the other interfaces in the LAG can be added to a LAG.
Therefore, only the following port groups can be members in the same LAG: g1 to g4 (a 1G
LAG) or ports mg5 to mg6 (2.5G LAG), or ports mg5 to mg6 (5G LAG) or ports xmg9 and
xg10 (10G LAG).
To configure LAG settings:
1. Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.
You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.
If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see Access the Switch on page 12.
The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the Password field.
The default password is password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Switching> LAG > Basic > LAG Configuration.
