Ethernet Port Aggregation

Ethernet aggregation lets aggregate two Ethernet ports on your router to improve the aggregated
file transfer speed.
To set up Ethernet port aggregation, connect a device that supports Ethernet port aggregation
and 802.3ad to Ethernet aggregate ports 4 and 5 on your router. Note that Ethernet port
aggregation is also referred to as link aggregation, teaming port, and port trunking.
WARNING: To avoid causing broadcast looping, which can shut down your network, do not
connect an unmanaged switch to Ethernet ports 4 and 5 on your router.
