4.1.3 VLAN
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain,
which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same
VLAN will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN
from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to
another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the
same switch physically.
Port Segmentation (VLAN) Configuration

4.1.4 Aggregation
Port trunk allows multiple links to be bundled together and act as a single physical
link for increased throughput. It provides load balancing, and redundancy of links in a
switched inter-network. Actually, the link does not have an inherent total bandwidth
equal to the sum of its component physical links. Traffic in a trunk is distributed
across an individual link within the trunk in a deterministic method that called a hash
algorithm. The hash algorithm automatically applies load balancing to the ports in
the trunk. A port failure within the trunk group causes the network traffic to be
directed to the remaining ports. Load balancing is maintained whenever a link in a
trunk is lost or returned to service.
Aggregation / Trunking Configuration
To assign the ports to a trunk, click the required trunk number ports, then click
Apply.
Below example figure show Port 3 and 4 are the member ports of the Trunk Group 1.
4.1.5 LACP
IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) increases bandwidth by
automatically aggregating several physical links together as a logical trunk and
providing load balancing and fault tolerance for uplink connections. Once the port is
configured as Static Aggregation port, the area will become gray. It means a port can
only be the member of the Aggregation or LACP.

ES2446-51
15
LACP Port Configuration
Port: The port ID.
Protocol Enabled: Enables LACP Protocol on the associated port.
Key Value: Configures a port's LACP administration key. The port administrative
key must be set to the same value for ports that belong to the same link
aggregation group (LAG). If this administrative key is not set when an LAG is
formed (i.e., it has the null value of 0), this key will automatically be set to the
same value as that used by the LAG.
