7-4 Port Trunking
Table 7-2 Aggregator Information
FIELD DESCRIPTION
Port No This field displays the port number(s) belonging to a static trunk group.
7.4 State Activity
Ports in a dynamic trunk group can be in either active or passive state.
If a port is in active state, the port automatically sends LACP packets to negotiate a trunk
link configuration with another link aggregation port on the other side of the link.
If a port is in passive state, the port only responds to LACP packets but cannot negotiate a
trunk link configuration with another trunk port on the other end of the link.
Use the State Activity screen to set the state of the port(s) in a dynamic trunk group.
