Static Link Aggregation
Function: Static Link Aggregation provides network links for increased transmission and receiving flow as well as negative balancing and fault tolerance. The two network ports share all network flows, when one team develops problems, the other one takes over all tasks.
Network configuration:
1.The network ports must be connected to the same network switch.
2.All network ports must be online at the same speed.
3.Use only network switches capable of Link Aggregation:
•Use Cisco FEC or GEC network switches with the PAgP proto- col.
•Intel network switches
•All network switches supporting static 802.3ad.
Dynamic Link Aggregation
Function: Dynamic Link Aggregation provides network links for increased bandwidth as well as negative balancing and fault tolerance. Two network ports share all network flows, when one team develops a problem, the other one takes over all tasks.
Network configuration:
1.The network ports must be connected to the same network switch.
2.All network ports must be online at different speeds.
3.The online switches must be fully compatible with the IEEE 802.3ad standard.
