4-2-6. Aggregation
The Aggregation (Port Trunking) Configuration is used to configure the
settings of Link Aggregation. You can bundle ports by same speed, MAC, and full
duplex to be a single logical port, thus the logical port can aggregate the bandwidth
of these ports. This means you can apply your current Ethernet equipment to build
the bandwidth aggregation. For example, if three Fast Ethernet ports are
aggregated into a logical port, then this logical port’s bandwidth would be as three
times high as a single Fast Ethernet ports.
