24-Port Managed Gigabit Switch
physical path. This allows traffic loads to be distributed across
multiple communication links, and a link failure within the
group causes the network traffic to be directed to the
remaining links in the group. The Spanning Tree Protocol will
treat a port trunking group as a single link, on the Switch level.
On the port level, the STP will use the port parameters of the
Master Port in the calculation of port cost and in determining
the state of the port trunking group. If two redundant port
trunking groups are configured on the Switch, STP will block
one entire group; in the same way STP will block a single port
that has a redundant link.
3.5.3 Link Aggregation Requirement for Port Settings
In one link aggregation group, member port should keep the same
settings for mainly STP, QoS, VLAN, etc.
STP Settings:
STP enable/disable
Port’s link property (such as P2P, non-P2P)
STP priority
STP cost
Edge port
QoS Setting:
Default Class
Tag Priority
