Note: If your device supports a static link aggregation group (LAG) only, you must enable
static mode before you connect your device to Ethernet ports 4 and 5 on the router. See Step

For information about how to set up Ethernet port aggregation on your router or computer,
see the documentation that came with your router or computer.

by default):
• Enable (LACP-IEEE 803.3ad). The router communicates with the device connected to
Ethernet ports 4 and 5 on your router, and checks to see if Ethernet port aggregation
is supported on the device. If Ethernet port aggregation is supported, the router
automatically trunks Ethernet ports 4 and 5. If not, Ethernet ports 4 and 5 work as
independent Ethernet ports. We recommend that you select this mode unless your
NAS or switch can support static LAG only.
• Static. If your device supports a static link aggregation group (LAG) only, select this
mode. Otherwise, we recommend that you to select the Enable (LACP-IEE 803.3ad)
radio button instead.
