4-2-6. Aggregation Configuration
The Aggregation (Port Trunking) Configuration is used to configure the
settings of Link Aggregation. You can bundle more than one port with the same
speed, full duplex and the same MAC to be a single logical port, thus the logical port
aggregates the bandwidth of these ports. This means you can apply your current
Ethernet equipments to build the bandwidth aggregation. For example, if there are
three Fast Ethernet ports aggregated in a logical port, then this logical port has
bandwidth three times as high as a single Fast Ethernet port has.
