TeraStation III iSCSI User Manual

Port trunking (link aggregation) allows you to connect the TeraStation to two Ethernet ports for increased speed and
reliability. Your hub or switch must support IEEE 802.1AX-2008 to use port trunking. Turn to the next page for instruc-
tions on configuring port trunking on the TeraStation.
The TeraStation supports the following port trunking modes:
[Off]: Port trunking is not used.
[Round-robin policy] * - Sets a round-robin policy for fault tolerance and load balancing.
[Active-backup policy] - Sets an active-backup policy for fault tolerance.
[XOR policy] * - Sets an XOR (exclusive-or) policy for fault tolerance and load balancing.
[Broadcast policy] - Sets a broadcast policy for fault tolerance.
[Dynamic link aggregation] * - Sets an IEEE 802.3ad dynamic link aggregation policy.
[Adaptive transmit load balancing (TLB)] - Sets a Transmit Load Balancing (TLB) policy for fault tolerance and load
balancing.
* Configure your switch for the appropriate port trunking mode before configuring these modes on the TeraStation.
Port Trunking
Important:
After configuring Port Trunking in the Web Admin interface, reboot the TeraStation with the power button. If you fail to
reboot it, network communication may become unstable.
