Download EPUBload sharing
Load sharing, also
known as trunking or link aggregation, conforms to IEEE 802.3ad. This feature is the
grouping of multiple network links into one logical high-bandwidth link. For example, by
grouping four 100 Mbps of full-duplex bandwidth into one logical link, you can create up to
800 Mbps of bandwidth. Thus, you increase bandwidth and availability by using a group of
ports to carry traffic in parallel between switches.
