For LACP aggregation, you must manually maintain the aggregation state of the member ports. Whether
ports in LACP group are aggregation ports or not is deterrmined by LLDPBU frame auto-negotiation.
Down to 2 member ports must be included in a single aggregation group. LACP is enabled on the
member ports in LACP mode.
Ports in an LACP aggregation group may stay either in a forwarding status or a blocked status. Ports in
LACP aggregation group will be in a forwarding status. If all ports in the aggregation group are not
aggregated, only the first port will be in the forwarding status. Ports in forwarding status can send/receive
both service packets and LACP frames; ports in blocked status can only send/receive LACP frames.
