INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL

Link Aggregation

Static Trunk
Introduction
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. The Switch supports both static and dynamic link
aggregation.
Note: In a properly planned network, it is recommended to implement static link aggregation
only. This ensures increased network stability and control over the trunk groups on your Switch.
Default Settings
The default group Link Aggregation state is disabled for all groups.
The default group Link Aggregation load balance is source MAC and destination MAC for all
groups.
