ProSAFE 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch XS728T and XS748T User Manual
This sets the port control administrative mode. You must select Enable in order for the
port to participate in the network. The default is Enable.
9. In the Port Speed field, specify the speed value for the selected port.
Possible field values are as follows:
• Auto. All supported speeds. This is the default setting.
• 1G Full Duplex. 1 Gbps full duplex.
Note: After you change the speed value, the switch might be inaccessible for
a number of seconds while the new settings take effect.
10. Click the Apply button.
The updated configuration is sent to the switch. Configuration changes take effect
immediately.
The following table describes the nonconfigurable data that is displayed.
Configure Link Aggregation Groups
Link aggregation groups (LAGs), which are also known as port channels, allow you to
combine multiple full-duplex Ethernet links into a single logical link. Network devices treat the
aggregation as if it were a single link, which increases fault tolerance and provides load
sharing. You assign the LAG VLAN membership after you create a LAG. The LAG by default
becomes a member of the default management VLAN (that is, VLAN 1).
A LAG interface can be either static or dynamic, but not both. All members of a LAG must
participate in the same protocols. A static port channel interface does not require a partner
system to be able to aggregate its member ports.
Static LAGs are supported. When a port is added to a LAG as a static member, it neither
transmits nor receives LACPDUs. Model XS728T supports 12 LAGs. Model XS748T
supports 24 LAGs.
Table 18. Port Configuration information
Field Description
Port Type For normal ports this field is blank. Otherwise, the possible values are as follows:
• Mirrored. The port is a mirrored port on which all the traffic is copied to the probe port.
• Probe. Use this port to monitor a mirrored port.
• LAG. The port is a member of a link aggregation trunk. For more information, see
Configure Link Aggregation Groups on page 88.
Physical Status The port speed and duplex mode.
Link Status Indicates whether the link is up or down.
MAC Address The physical address of the specified interface.
ifIndex The ifIndex of the interface table entry associated with this port.
