7.5.4 Port Trunk
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for
exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation
Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which
the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission
and reception functions in an orderly manner. Link aggregation lets you group up to eight
ports into two dedicated connections. This feature can expand bandwidth between 2 (or
more) devices. LACP
operation requires full-duplex mode, more detail information refers to
IEEE 802.3ad.
