Normally, all 5 contributions to the aggregation code should be enabled to obtain the best traffic distribution among the link
aggregation member ports. Each link aggregation may consist of up to 10 member ports. Any quantity of link aggregation s may
be configured for the device (only limited by the quantity of ports on the device.) To configure a proper traffic distribution, the
ports within a link aggregation must use the same link speed.
