For LACP aggregation, you must manually maintain the aggregation state of the member ports. Whether 
ports in LACP group are aggregation ports or  not is deterrmined by LLDPBU frame auto-negotiation. 
Down  to  2  member  ports  must  be  included  in  a  single  aggregation  group.  LACP  is  enabled  on  the 
member ports in LACP mode.   
Ports in an LACP aggregation group may stay either in a forwarding status or a blocked status. Ports in 
LACP  aggregation  group  will  be  in  a  forwarding  status.  If  all  ports  in  the  aggregation  group  are  not 
aggregated, only the first port will be in the forwarding status. Ports in forwarding status can send/receive 
both service packets and LACP frames; ports in blocked status can only send/receive LACP frames.
