Figure 5-5. Link Aggregation Group
Data transmitted to a specific host (destination address) will
always be transmitted over the same port in a link aggregation
group. This allows packets in a data stream to arrive in the
same order they were sent. A aggregated link connection can be
made with any other switch that maintains host-to-host data
streams over a single link aggregate port. Switches that use a
load-balancing scheme that sends the packets of a host-to-host
data stream over multiple link aggregation ports cannot have a
aggregated connection with the DES-3326S switch.
