Dear friend!
Are you talking about static link aggregation(SLA)?
In computer networking, the term link aggregation applies to various methods of combining (aggregating) multiple network connections in parallel in order to increase throughput beyond what a single connection could sustain, and to provide redundancy in case one of the links should fail. When a link fails and there is (for example) a media converter between the devices, a peer system will not perceive any connectivity problems. With static link aggregation, the peer would continue sending traffic down the link causing the connection to fail.
With no need for hardware upgrades, link aggregation binds several Ethernet ports as a logical port for higher link bandwidth and link reliability.
There are two aggregation modes:
Static aggregation mode: The number of ports to be aggregated is fixed, and the bandwidth after aggregation is fixed.
Dynamic aggregation mode: The number of aggregated ports is dynamically adjusted based on the traffic policy, and the aggregated bandwidth changes accordingly.
Thanks!
