Link Aggregation Setting - ZyXEL Communications XGS2220 Series User Manual

79.20 Link Aggregation Setting

Use the Link Aggregation Setting screen to enable static link. Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping
of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is
cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port
link. However, the more ports you aggregate then the fewer available ports you have. A trunk group is
one logical link containing multiple ports.
