Understanding Port Trunk Groups
Port trunk groups are used to combine a number of ports together to make a single
The Switch supports up to three port trunk groups with 2 to 8 ports in each group. A potential bit rate of 8000 Mbps can be achieved.
Figure 7- 7. Example of Port Trunk Group
The Switch treats all ports in a trunk group as a single port. Data transmitted to a specific host (destination address) will always be transmitted over the same port in a trunk group. This allows packets in a data stream to arrive in the same order they were sent.
