3.2.5 Aggregation
Port Aggregation is used to Aggregate Ports into a logical trunk usually called Link Aggregation. Link Aggregation can bundle more than one port with the same speed, full duplex and the same MAC address to be a single logical port, thus the logical port aggregates the bandwidth of these ports. This allows the switch to aggregate multiple ports together to form a high bandwidth backbone link.
