4-2-6. LACP
The switch supports the link aggregation IEEE802.3ad standard. This
standard describes the Link Aggregate Control Protocol (LACP), which is a protocol
that dynamically creates and manages trunk groups.
When you enable LACP link aggregation on a port, the port can automatically
negotiate with the ports at the remote end of a link to establish trunk groups. LACP
also allows port redundancy, that is, if an operational port fails, then one of the
“standby” ports become operational without user intervention.
