Channel Group
Optionally, set the Channel Group defined for the port. The controller bundles
individual Ethernet links (over the selected channel) into a single logical link that
provides bandwidth between the controller and another controller or host. The port
speed used is dependant on the Duplex value selected (full, half or auto). If a
segment within a channel fails, traffic previously carried over the failed link is
routed to the remaining segments within the channel. A trap is sent upon a failure
identifying the controller, channel and failed link.
