Using Port Trunking

Link Aggregation allows one or more links to be aggregated together to form a Link Aggregation Group. A MAC client can treat Link Aggregation Groups as if they were a single link.

The EDS-510A’s Port Trunking feature allows devices to communicate by aggregating up to 4 trunk groups, with a maximum of 8 ports for each group (due to the interface limitation, there is a limit of 3 gigabit ports or 7 10/100 Mbps ports for each Trk trunk group). If one of the 8 ports fails,
