EtherChannel can provide high availability and increase bandwidth at the same time. There are three different methods to configure EtherChannel in Cisco switch. You can configure it manually or use protocols like […]
Link Aggregation is very useful technology in areas where high availability and high bandwidth is required. It allows you to combine multiple interface into one at the MAC layer, providing redundancy and fault tolerance link at the same time. There are different names for this same technology.
