1. Set up LAN port aggregation on your LAN device before connecting it to your router.
NOTE: You must also enable link aggregation on your router before you
connect your device to LAN ports 1 and 2 on the router, otherwise you will
create a network loop.
For information about how to set up LAN port aggregation on your LAN device, see
the documentation that came with your LAN device.

aggregation on the router.
