AP555 and using two uplinks

    I have some new AP555's that I'm going to deploy soon.  If I want to connect them to the network using both their E0 and E1 ports (both for increased uplink speed and increased reliability) what do I need to do to configure that.  Do I configure the two ports on the switch I connect it to as a trunk (in Procurve Speak, or in Cisco/traditional Aruba speak as a LAG)?  Also do I need to do anything on the controller side so the AP knows to expect that it should treat its two connections as one?

    you need to configure LACP on the switches and allow the AP to negotiate LACP and use both links at the same time. No special configuration should be required to enable LACP support on the AP-530 or AP-555
