Link Aggregation of Aggregation Switches

They support link aggregation protocols such as Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and Static Link Aggregation, which allow multiple physical links to be combined into a single logical connection. It enhances bandwidth, provides fault tolerance, and allows load balancing between connected devices. A fundamental for effective switch management, if you have a switch with a whole lot of Gigabit Ethernet ports, you can connect all of them to another device that also has a. Switch aggregation, also known as link aggregation or trunking, is a method used in computer networking to combine (aggregate) multiple network connections in parallel. The aggregated link acts as a single logical port functioning at a speed equal to the sum of the bandwidths of all of the physical links.
