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.

Function name:

Aggregation Configuration

Function description:

Display the current setup of Aggregation Trunking. With this function, user is allowed to add a new trunking group or modify the members of an existed trunking group.

Parameter description:

Normal:

Set up the ports that do not join any aggregation trunking group. Group 1~8:

Group the ports you choose together. Up to 8 ports can be selected for each group.
