Link aggregation modes

An aggregation group operates in one of the following modes:

• Static—Static aggregation is stable. An aggregation group in static mode is called a static aggregation group. The aggregation states of the member ports in a static aggregation group are not affected by the peer ports.

• Dynamic—An aggregation group in dynamic mode is called a dynamic aggregation group. The local system and the peer system automatically maintain the aggregation states of the member ports. Dynamic link aggregation reduces the administrators' workload.
