Does the aggregation switch need to be configured with STP

Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) and multichassis link aggregation groups (MC-LAGs) are used to allow dual connections between the access and aggregation layers without the need for STP on individual links. After link aggregation is configured, several physical links are bundled into one logical link and share the same IP address and MAC address. STP does not distinguish member links. Instead, STP considers an Eth-Trunk as a link and performs actions such as Discard, Forward, or Block for the. STP configurations, including STP enable or disable, STP priority, and STP cost. Only full duplex mode is supported. Trunk, hybrid, or. Port Aggregation Protocol or PAgP is an EtherChannel technology that is a Cisco proprietary protocol. The.

Instead of one cable at 10G, you might have: Of course, as we'll see later, each flow does not get 40G, but in aggregate, you can use all the links.
