Link Aggregation
Order No. 006-130-101/102
Link Aggregation (also known as port trunking) makes it possible to bundle multiple ports to enable a
higher and redundant data throughput between two devices.
The setting to Link Aggregation You can find in the web interface at
Configuration > Link Aggregation
.
Each interface can be add to a group or configured without a group (none). Thereby a maximum of 4
groups are available. To make sure that a trunk group is working properly, all ports in the group must
have the link-state "up". If a link fail occurs, packets get lost. The setting is transmitted to the "set"
button on the device.
Link Aggregation distributes traffic based on the MAC address on the
available lines. A connection between two devices can therefore reach a
maximum of 100 Mbit/s.
7.4.
Port Mirroring
Order No. 006-130-101/102
Port mirroring (or port monitoring) makes it possible to duplicate network traffic to an observation port
and to analyze it there. Per port, the incoming and outgoing traffic can be duplicated independently.
The settings for port mirroring are set in the web interface at
Configuration > Port Mirroring
.
In the left table, the port mirroring is activated or deactivated (default: disabled). Also, the observation
port (destination port, destination port) can be set.
