Port Management > Link Aggregation

You can create multiple links between devices that work
as one virtual, aggregate link (LAG) . An aggregated link
offers a dramatic increase in bandwidth for network
segments where bottlenecks exist, as well as providing a
fault-tolerant link between two devices . You can create up
to four LAGs on the Switch . Each LAG can contain up to
eight ports .
