1.4 Description of Functionality

1.4.1 Port Trunking
Port Trunking is a technology which aggregates a network flow to a group of ports, thus provides
a communication channel of high bandwidth with error-free between switches. Network flows
can be distributed evenly between channels and thus provides load balance. Port trunking is
supported by the iSpirit 3026 switch.
Multiple physical ports can be combined to a logical port through port trunking. Features:
(1) If one port in the trunk group blocks or breaks down, data packets will be redistributed
evenly to other ports in the group;
(2) If the malfunction port goes back to normal, data packets will also be redistributed
among all ports in the group;
(3) Port trunking provided by the iSpirit 3026 switch is compatible with that provided by
Intel and Cisco.
