7.4 Aggregation
Use the
Aggregation
sub-menu to configure several ports as a trunk. A trunk is a logical port with the aggregate bandwidth of its component ports.
7.4.1 Static Trunk
Use the
Static Trunk
sub-menu to manually assign ports to static trunk.
The advantage of static trunks is that their ports immediately become members of the trunk without handshaking with their peer port. The disad-
vantage is that the peer device must be configured separately with the same settings or the trunk will not be established.
To configure a static trunk:
1. Click
Configuration
>
2. Configure the
Hash Code
3. Click the corresponding radio button for each port you want to add to a trunk.
Note:
Each port in a trunk must be full duplex with the same speed.
4. Click Save.
