Port Configuration Options
The RDX QuikStation 4, depending on the model, has either two or four 1GbE ports to provide
failover protection and high availability network connectivity. The RDX QuikStation 8,
depending on the model, has either four 1GbE ports, four 1GbE and one 10GbE ports, or two
10GbE ports. In network environments, it is a common practice to configure two or more
external ports as a single, logical, bonded port using an industry-standard feature called Link
Aggregation, also known as port bonding or port trunking.
The benefits of port bonding include an increase throughput beyond what a single connection
could sustain and provide redundancy in case one of the links should fail.
NOTE: For the RDX QuikStation 8 model with four 1GbE and one 10GbE ports, the 10GbE port
cannot be bonded with any 1GbE ports.
