Example of a Static Link Aggregate Group Network
See “Configuring Static Link Aggregation Groups” on page 16-7 for information on using Command Line
Interface (CLI) commands to configure static aggregate groups and see “Displaying Static Link Aggrega-
tion Configuration and Statistics” on page 16-12 for information on using CLI to monitor static aggregate
groups.
Relationship to Other Features
Link aggregation groups are supported by other switch software features. The following features have CLI
commands or command parameters that support link aggregation:
• VLANs. For more information on VLANs see Chapter 4, “Configuring VLANs.”
• 802.1Q. For more information on configuring and monitoring 802.1Q see Chapter 15, “Configuring
802.1Q.”
• Spanning Tree. For more information on Spanning Tree see Chapter 16, “Configuring Static Link
Aggregation.”
Note. See “Application Example” on page 16-11 for tutorials on using link aggregation with other
features.
