Ethernet Port Aggregation
Ethernet aggregation lets you combine two Gigabit Ethernet ports to improve the aggregated file transfer speed.
Note that Ethernet port aggregation is also referred to as link aggregation, teaming port, and port trunking. If a device
supports Ethernet aggregation, you can use the Ethernet aggregate ports 1 and 2 to cable the device that supports
Ethernet port aggregation to the router.
To get the fastest performance with port aggregation, for wired connections use Ethernet
port 3 for the first computer, and use Ethernet port 4, 5, or 6 for the second computer, which
allows for speeds up to 2 Gbps with port aggregation.The maximum speed between port 4,
5, and 6 is limited to 1 Gbps.
Note
NETGEAR ReadyNAS equipment with two Ethernet ports such as the model RN100/200/300/500/700 desktop
series and the ReadyNAS RN2000/3000/4000 rack-mount series support Ethernet aggregation.
