L3 Aggregate Port
An L3 aggregate port is a logical aggregate port group
composed of multiple physical member ports, just like an L2
aggregate port. The ports to be aggregated must be L3 ports
of the same type. An aggregate port serves as the gateway
interface of L3 switching. It treats multiple physical links in
the same aggregate group as one logical link. It is an
important way to expand link bandwidth. Multiple physical
links are combined into one logical link, expanding the
bandwidth of a link. Frames sent over the L3 AP are
balanced among the L3 AP member ports. If one member
link fails, the L3 AP automatically transfers the traffic on the
faulty link to other member links, improving reliability of
connections.
L3 aggregate ports do not support the L2 switching function.

Port Configuration
Port configuration includes common attributes such as basic settings and physical settings of the port. Users
can adjust the port rate, set port switch, duplex mode, flow control mode, energy efficient Ethernet switch, port
media type and MTU, etc.
