Example: Configuring Link Aggregation Control Protocol on a Security Device (J-Web Procedure)

This example shows how to configure LACP.

Before you begin:

Verify that the Ethernet interfaces are in switch mode. See Understanding VLANs.
Link aggregation of one or more interfaces must be set up to form a virtual link or link aggregation group (LAG) before you can apply LACP.

In this example, you configure link aggregation for switched Ethernet interfaces then apply LACP.

To access the LACP Configuration:

In the J-Web user interface, select Configure>Interfaces>Link Aggregation.
The Aggregated Interfaces list is displayed.
Click one of the following:
- Device Count—Creates an aggregated Ethernet interface, or LAG. You can choose the number of device that you want to create.
- Add—Adds a new aggregated Ethernet Interface, or LAG.
- Edit— Modifies a selected LAG
  - Aggregation—Modifies an selected LAG.
  - VLAN—Specifies VLAN options for the selected LAG.
  - IP Option—Configuring IP address to LAG is not supported and when you try to configure the IP address an error message is displayed.
- Delete—Deletes the selected LAG.
- Disable Port or Enable Port—Disables or enables the administrative status on the selected interface.
Click one:
- Click OK to check your configuration and save it as a candidate configuration, then click Commit Options>Commit.
- Click Cancel to cancel the configuration without saving changes.
