Ports using Static Trunk as their trunk method can choose their unique Static GroupID
(also 1~8, this Static groupID can be the same with another LACP groupID) to form a logic
“trunked port”. The benefit of using Static Trunk method is that a port can immediately
become a member of a trunk group without any handshaking with its peer port. This is also
a disadvantage because the peer ports of your static trunk group may not know that they
should be aggregate together to form a “logic trunked port”. Using Static Trunk on both
end of a link is strongly recommended. Please also note that low speed links will stay in
“not ready” state when using static trunk to aggregate with high speed links.
As to system restrictions about the port aggregation function on the switch, in the
management point of view, the switch supports maximum 8 trunk groups for LACP and
additional 8 trunk groups for Static Trunk. But in the system capability view, only 8 “real
trunked” groups are supported. An LACP trunk group with more than one ready
member-pors is a “real trunked” group. An LACP trunk group with only one or less than
one ready member-port is not a “real trunked” group. Any Static trunk group is a “real
trunked” group.
Per Trunking Group supports a maximum of 12 ready member-ports. Please note that some
decisions will automatically be made by the system while you are configuring your
trunking ports. Some configuration examples are listed below:
Rule1: Maximum 3 groups are allowed
Rule 2: The members of each group cannot exceed more than 4 ports
Rule 3: Group 1 and 2 cannot exist member 25 and 26 port
Rule 4: Group 3 cannot exist member from 1 to 24 port
