LACP System
Priority
LACP system priority is a number between 1 and 65,535. The switch with the lowest system
priority (and lowest port number if system priority is the same) becomes the LACP “server”. The
LACP “server” controls the operation of LACP setup. Enter a number to set the priority of an
active port using Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The smaller the number, the higher
the priority level.
Load Balance
Algorithm
Select the outgoing traffic distribution type. Packets from the same source and/or to the same
destination are sent over the same link within the trunk. By default, the Switch uses the IP/ MAC
Addre ss distribution type. If the Switch is behind a router, the packet’s destination or source
MAC address will be changed. In this case, set the Switch to distribute traffic based on its IP
address to make sure port trunking can work properly.
Select MA C Ad dre ss to distribute traffic based on a combination of the packet’s source and
destination MAC addresses.
Select IP/ MAC A dd re ss to distribute traffic based on a combination of the packet’s source and
destination IP addresses.
