IEEE 802.3ad on GSS116E as advertised?
The new GSS116E switch (not old GS116E) is advertised as supporting IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation standards. Note that my Synology NAS does not support the proprietary Netgear-LAG mode, and requir...
Hi Eaglehawk,
The GSS116E switch only supports static LAG (see datasheet) compared to the GS108T which is a smart managed switch which has static LAG and LACP support. See instructions on enabling LAG on the datasheet, please click here.
Thanks,
so i´m the next one who got mislead.
infact of that miscommunication and false report in marketing, i will exchange all the netgear hardware in office (GS116Ev2, JGS524Ev2) an put it on the shopping black list.
u stole 2-3 h of my time in the office, to figure out the problem u gave me.
Bye, cu never again.
Same thing here...Synology 1815+ and LAG do not work.
Hi NGDude,
Welcome to the community! :)
I'm afraid that only static LAG is supported on the GSS116E. I would recommend you the Smart Switch Series of NETGEAR here.

Hello Netgear,
it is even not planned to enable LACP through the firmware? As the technology itself is already supported in this switch. I also bought this one because of the technology availabled the LACP function and primarily I needed the clickable function.

Hi ngts,
Welcome to the community! :)
You may want to post your concern about having LACP be supported on the GSS116E switch on the Idea Exchange Board for Business here. Be reminded that adding kudos to the ideas posted will help as the development team will be reviewing the post that has the most kudos for it to be considered to be added as a future functionality of the product.
