STP LAG Settings
The STP LAG Settings page contains the following fields:
Select a LAG — The LAG number for which you want to modify STP settings.

LAG State is automatically placed in the Forwarding state when the LAG is up. Fast Link mode
optimizes the time it takes for the STP protocol to converge. STP convergence can take 30-60

action is taken on traffic. If the bridge discovers a malfunctioning LAG, the LAG is placed in the
Broken state. Possible LAG states are:
