sharing. You assign the LAG VLAN membership after you create a LAG. The LAG by default
becomes a member of the default management VLAN (that is, VLAN 1).

A LAG interface can be either static or dynamic, but not both. All members of a LAG must

participate in the same protocols. A static port channel interface does not require a partner
system to be able to aggregate its member ports.

Static LAGs are supported. When a port is added to a LAG as a static member, it neither
transmits nor receives LACPDUs. The switch supports 8 LAGs.

From the

Switching > LAG > Advanced

menu, you can access pages that are described in

the following sections:

Configure LAG Settings

Use the LAG Configuration page to group one or more full-duplex Ethernet links to be
aggregated together to form a link aggregation group, which is also known as a port channel.
The switch treats the LAG as if it were a single link.

Only interfaces of the same type as the other interfaces in the LAG can be added to a LAG.
Therefore, only the following port groups can be members in the same LAG: g1 to g4 (a 1G
LAG) or ports mg5 to mg6 (2.5G LAG), or ports mg5 to mg6 (5G LAG) or ports xmg9 and
xg10 (10G LAG).

To configure LAG settings:

1.

Connect your computer to the same network as the switch.

You can use a WiFi or wired connection to connect your computer to the network, or
connect directly to a switch that is off-network using an Ethernet cable.

2.

Launch a web browser.

3.

In the address field of your web browser, enter the IP address of the switch.

If you do not know the IP address of the switch, see
