88.20 Link Aggregation Setting
Use the Link Aggregation Setting screen to enable static link. Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping
of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is
cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port
link. However, the more ports you aggregate then the fewer available ports you have. A trunk group is
one logical link containing multiple ports.
