Manage the Switch via the Device Manager Web Interface Chapter 3
Configure EtherChannels
You can create up to six EtherChannels, and you can configure each
EtherChannel in one of these modes.
• IEEE 802.3ad (LACP) mode (default)
This lets the switch create one end of the EtherChannel if the other switch
requests it.
• Static mode
This mode requires you to make sure that both ends of the EtherChannel
have the same configuration and then to manually create the
EtherChannel.
• Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) mode
This mode lets the switch automatically form an EtherChannel with the
other switch.
Use the EtherChannels dialog box to create, modify, and delete EtherChannels.
To display this dialog box, choose Configure>EtherChannels from the Device
Manager Web interface menu.
