6. In the LAN Port Aggregation section, select a LAN port aggregation mode (by default,
LAN port aggregation is disabled):
• Enable (LACP-IEEE 802.3ad): After you connect the Ethernet cables (see the
following step), the router communicates with the LAN device that is connected
to LAN ports 1 and 2 on your router, and checks to see if LAN port aggregation
is supported on the LAN device. If LAN port aggregation is supported, the router
automatically trunks LAN ports 1 and 2. If not, LAN ports 1 and 2 work as
independent LAN ports. We recommend that you select this mode unless your
LAN device can support a static LAG only.
• Static: If your device supports a static LAG only, select this mode. Otherwise, we
recommend that you select the Enable (LACP-IEEE 802.3ad) radio button
instead.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
After you complete the next step, the Ethernet Port Aggregation Status field displays
if Ethernet port aggregation is active or inactive.
8. Physically connect your LAN device to LAN ports 1 and 2 on the router.
