Dynamic link aggregation, defined under IEEE 802.1AX (formerly 802.3ad), allows multiple Ethernet interfaces on a switch to operate as a single logical link. Unlike static aggregation, which requires manual configuration on both ends, dynamic aggregation uses the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) to automatically negotiate which physical interfaces participate in the aggregation group, ensuring compatibility and reducing configuration errors .
LACP-enabled switches exchange LACP Data Units (LACPDUs) to detect compatible links and form a Link Aggregation Group (LAG). LACP can operate in two modes:
S300, S500, S2700, S3700, S5700, S6700, S7700, and S9700 Series Switches Typical Configuration Examples (V200) This
