    What is Link aggregation?

     Link aggregation is also called port trunk or port aggregation.

     Link aggregation is to aggregate several ports into a aggregation


    group to implement load balance of in/out flows on each
    member port.

     This improves the reliability of the connections at the same time.


    When a link is disconnected, the traffic will be reassigned
    among the remaining link automatically.

     Link aggregation is implemented on the data link layer.

    Benefits of Link Aggregation

     Bandwidth is increased by bundling multiple physical links to one logical link;


     Reliability is improved. When one link (e.g. link D) is down, traffics will be re-
    distributed among remaining three links A, B and C automatically;
     L2 Loop is avoided;
     Link transmission flexibility and link redundancy can be realized.

    Prerequisites of Link Aggregation

     Physical parameters on both ends of aggregated links must be


    identical
     Number of links to be aggregated
     Rate of links to be aggregated
     Links to be aggregated must be in mode of full duplex.

     Logical parameters on both ends of aggregated links must be


    identical
     Basic configurations of ports in the same aggregation group must be
    identical, which include STP, QoS, VLAN, port and other related
    configurations.

    Link aggregation Mode

     Static trunk
    Static trunk directly adds multiple physical ports to the trunk group, thus
    forming a logic port. This mode is not suitable for observing the state of
    the link aggregation port.

     LACP
    Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) follows IEEE 802.3ad standards.
    It converges multiple physical ports into the trunk group to form a logic
    port. It automatically generates aggregation to obtain the maximum
    bandwidth.

    Static Trunk

     In static trunk mode, multiple physical ports are added to one


    trunk group to form one logical interface.

    In this mode, it is not convenient to monitor the state of


    aggregate port, which leads to interruption of partial services.

    LACP

     LACP: Link Aggregation Control Protocol (IEEE802.3ad).

     Provide a standard negotiation mode for devices exchanging


    data. In this mode, system forms and enables aggregation link
    according to its configuration to receive and send packets. After
    aggregation link is formed, LACP is used to maintain link state.
    When aggregate conditions change, it automatically adjusts or
    disaggregates link aggregation.
