Link Aggregation
[ Switching > L2-Redundancy > Link Aggregation ]
The
Link Aggregation
function lets you aggregate multiple parallel links. The prerequisite is that the
links have the same speed and are full duplex. The advantages compared to conventional
connections using a single line are higher availability and a higher transmission bandwidth.
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) makes it possible to monitor the packet-based
continuous link status on the physical ports. LACP also helps ensure that the link partners meet the
aggregation prerequisites.
If the remote side does not support the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), then you can
use the
Static link aggregation
function. In this case, the device aggregates the links based on the
link, link speed and duplex setting.
