Frame Classification

Hunt groups allow you to aggregate bandwidth from multiple ports

so they act as one high-bandwidth switch port. Hunt groups create

multi-gigabit pipes to transport traffic through the highest traffic

areas of your network. You can create hunt groups that interoperate

with other vendor's equipment (for example, Cisco's Etherchannel

and Sun's Quad Adapter).

All three switches are delivered as a plug-and-play IEEE 802.1D

standard bridge, but support several VLAN tagging schemes. This

makes the switch highly interoperable in existing networks because:

Any port can be a trunk port.

Ports have configurable VLAN tagging on a per-port basis.

Ports process a number of popular VLAN tagging schemes,

including major vendors' proprietary schemes.

The following are features of Open Trunk Technology:
