4.4.4 Trunking

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between
Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the
Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its
transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner. In conclusion, Link aggregation lets you group up to eight
consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection. This feature can expand bandwidth to a device on the network.
LACP operation requires full-duplex mode, more detail information refers to IEEE802.3ad.
