Aggregating Ports

Load Balancing enables the even distribution of data and/or processing packets across available network resources. For example, load balancing may distribute the incoming packets evenly to all servers, or redi- rect the packets to the next available server. Load Balancing is configured on the "LAG Configuration" on page 106 page.
