4. The following fields are displayed:
Aggregator ID— Each aggregator must have an ID number. The ID
number is the base port number (or lowest number) of an aggregator.
For instance, an aggregator of ports 12,16 and 17 must be assigned
the ID number 12 because that is the base port.
Load Balance Method— Indicates the load distribution methods of
the aggregators. An aggregator can have only one load distribution
method. The load distribution method determines the manner in which
the switch distributes the egress packets among the active ports of an
aggregator. The packets can be distributed by source MAC or IP
address, destination MAC or IP address, or by both source and
destination addresses.
Member Port(s)— Displays the member ports of the aggregators.
