Setting up lacp

[ac707spg]

Hi,

I have an HP 1910-24g (JE006a) switch, that I need to setup to use lacp.  I have two Synology NAS's that I have setup with dynamic link aggregation.  These two NAS are setup as a high-availability cluster.  Port 1 of each NAs is connected together to create the hearbeat between the cluster, and I have used lacp to aggregate ports 2-4 on each unit.  I am connecting all six LAN connections to the HP1910-24G switch. (I realize I should probably use two switches, but I don't have the luxury of being able to do this.)

Here's my question.  Do I create two LACP Dynamic groups and assign ports 2-4 from NAS1 to one group and ports 2-4 from NAS2 to a seaprate dynamic LACP group?  I haven't worked with this before, so I would love to hear from folks on what the recommended configuration is.  I would assume since they are different appliances that each would have a separate dynamic lacp group, but this is where  I need help.

Thanks so much for any help,

Scott

Unless the doco for the NAS tells you that the devices' "clustering" creates a single virtual device, then yes, they are two separate devices each with their own IP address(es) and each NAS needs its own LACP group on the switch.
