You need to enable LACP on the ports which you want to participate in dynamic aggregation of the
system, because, only when LACP is enabled on those ports at both ends, can the two parties reach
agreement in adding/removing ports to/from dynamic aggregation groups.
You cannot enable LACP on a port which is already in a manual aggregation group.
Follow these steps to configure a dynamic LACP aggregation group:
