。
The ports that can be assigned to the same link aggregation have certain other restrictions (see below).
。
Ports can only be assigned to one link aggregation.
。
The ports at both ends of a connection must be configured as link aggregation ports.
。

It allows a maximum of 4 ports to be aggregated at the same time and up to 2 groups. If the group is defined as a local static
