Create LACP bonds for NAS traffic

If your switches are configured with MC-LAG, you can use network bonding by creating a Link Aggregate Group (LAG) for NAS traffic.

1. Select Hardware > [Appliance] > Ports.
2. From the ports list, select two to four ports of the same speed on the node on which you want to aggregate for Link Aggregate Control Protocol (LACP) Bond to service NAS traffic.
   NOTE:The configuration is symmetrical across the peer node.
3. Select Link Aggregation > Aggregate Links.
4. Optionally, provide a description for the bond.
5. Select Aggregate.
6. Scroll through the ports list and locate the generated bond name.
   NOTE:You must select the bond name when you create the NAS server.
