The login window opens.
4. Enter the switch’s password in the password field.
The default password is password. If you added the switch to a network on the Insight
app before and you did not yet change the password through the local browser interface,
enter your Insight network password.
The System Information page displays.
5. Select Switchingï€ > LAG > Advanced > LACP Port Configuration.
The LACP Port Priority page displays.
6. Select one or more interfaces (ports only, no LAGs) by taking one of the following actions:
• To configure a single interface, select the check box associated with the interface, or
type the interface number in the Go To Interface field and click the Go button.
• To configure multiple interfaces with the same settings, select the check box
associated with each interface.
• To configure all interfaces with the same settings, select the check box in the heading
row.
7. In the LACP Priority field, specify the LACP priority value for the selected interfaces.
This value specifies the device’s link aggregation priority relative to the devices at the
other ends of the links on which link aggregation is enabled. A higher value indicates a
lower priority. The range is 1 to 65535. The default value is 128.
8. In the Timeout field, configure the administrative LACP time-out value:
• Long. Specifies a long time-out value. This is the default setting.
• Short. Specifies a short time-out value.
9. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Configure VLANs
Adding virtual LAN (VLAN) support to a Layer 2 switch offers some of the benefits of both
bridging and routing. Like a bridge, a VLAN switch forwards traffic based on the Layer 2
header, which is fast, and like a router, it partitions the network into logical segments, which
provides better administration, security, and management of multicast traffic.
By default, all ports on the switch are in the same broadcast domain. VLANs electronically
separate ports on the same switch into separate broadcast domains so that broadcast
packets are not sent to all the ports on a single switch. When you use a VLAN, users can be
grouped by logical function instead of physical location.
Each VLAN in a network is assigned an associated VLAN ID, which appears in the IEEE
802.1Q tag in the Layer 2 header of packets transmitted on a VLAN. An end station can omit
the tag, or the VLAN portion of the tag, in which case the first switch port to receive the
