Aggregation

Setting

This is the only screen you need to configure to enable static link aggregation.

Group ID The field identifies the link aggregation group, that is, one logical link containing multiple

ports.

Active Select this option to activate a trunk group.

Criteria Select the outgoing traffic distribution type. Packets from the same source and/or to the same

destination are sent over the same link within the trunk. By default, the Switch uses the src-

dst-mac distribution type. If the Switch is behind a router, the packet’s destination or source

MAC address will be changed. In this case, set the Switch to distribute traffic based on its IP

address to make sure port trunking can work properly.

Select src-mac to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source MAC address.

Select dst-mac to distribute traffic based on the packet’s destination MAC address.

Select src-dst-mac to distribute traffic based on a combination of the packet’s source and

destination MAC addresses.

Select src-ip to distribute traffic based on the packet’s source IP address.

Select dst-ip to distribute traffic based on the packet’s destination IP address.

Select src-dst-ip to distribute traffic based on a combination of the packet’s source and

destination IP addresses.
