Aggregating Ports - 3Com 3CBLSG48 User Manual

GGREGATING
This section contains information for configuring Link Aggregation,
which optimizes port usage by linking a group of ports together to
form a single LAG. A Link Aggregated Group (LAG) aggregates ports or
VLANs into a single virtual port or VLAN. Aggregating ports multiplies
the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and
provides link redundancy. Ensure the following:
All ports added to an existing LAG which are part of a tagged VLAN
inherit the existing VLAN tags.
Auto-negotiation mode is configured on the port.
The port is in full-duplex mode.
All ports in the LAG have the same ingress filtering and tagged
modes.
All ports in the LAG have the same back pressure and flow control
modes.
All ports in the LAG have the same priority.
All ports in the LAG have the same transceiver type.
The device supports up to eight LAGs, and eight ports in each LAG.
