Link Aggregation between GSM7224R and M4100-50G-POE+ setup help

I have two switches, M4100-50G-POE+ and GSM7224R . I am trying to set up link aggregation between both of them using the last 4 ethernet ports on each. I'm not exactly sure as to what needs to be set on both of the switches to get this to work.

 

Thank you.

Thanks for the response and linking the guide. I followed all of the instructions on the guide. The only thing it does not mention is which "Hash Mode" I should use. When I set up the lag per the guide, the switches are unable to talk to each other so I feel like something is still not set up right. The M4100 shows that the LAG is up but I am unable to connect to the GSM7224R switch now. The cat6 cables I'm using are in good order as well.

I was able to fix the issue. Turns out it was a firmware issue. Had to update the firmware on both switches and they work as they should now. Thanks again for your help.
