Explanation of Solution

LACP:

• Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) is an IEEE 802AX standard used for dynamically synchronizing communication between two hosts on aggregated connection and it works similar to the DHCP that works for IP addressing.
• It is used for bonding the ports between a switch and a busy server.
• It can be performed at Layer 2 and Layer 3 of OSI model and it allows the device to share one logical IP or MAC address.
• In a cabled network, it helps in handling the limitations on bandwidth.
• It helps in improving the features like bandwidth, fault tolerance, and availability except speed...
