EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch
) All ports are in full-duplex mode.
) Ports are of the same speed.
) All ports are Access ports and belong to the same VLAN or are all Trunk ports.
) If the ports are Trunk ports, then their “Allowed VLAN” and “Native VLAN” property
should also be the same.
If Port Channel is configured manually or dynamically on ES4710BD, the system will automatically
set the port with the smallest number to be Master Port of the Port Channel. If spanning tree is
enabled in the switch, spanning tree protocol will regard Port Channel as a logical port and send
BPDU frames via the master port.
Port aggregation is closely related with switch hardware. ES4710BD series allow physical port
aggregation of any two switches, maximum 8 port groups and 8 ports in each port group are
supported.
Once ports are aggregated, they can be used as a normal port. ES4710BD has a built-in aggregation
interface configuration mode, the user can perform related configuration in this mode just like in the
VLAN and physical port configuration mode.
